Anniversary Bunting
Last week for Valentine's Day, my partner, Charlie, made me a delicious 4 course meal that included herb crusted goat cheese, quinoa mint salad, mushroom schnitzel, and Mississippi mud pie. For the anniversary of our first date, today, I wanted to make something special in return. I'm not really crafty in the kitchen but I'm good at making things so, I decided to make some bunting to hang above our bed. I woke up, popped my The Breakfast Club VHS (yes, VHS) in the VCR and put Ferris Bueller's Day Off in the DVD player as a back up and set to work.
The finished piece(s) says 'I love you more than this much'. Here's what it took to put together.
Step 1: Making the hearts
Step 2: Drawing the letters
Step 3: Outline the letters
Step 4: Paint the letters
Step 5: Cut flags
Step 6: Glue hearts on flags
Step 7: Stitch pieces together
Step 8: Hang finished bunting
