Craft ideas for kids: paper bunting

Decorate bedrooms and doorways with this bright, pretty bunting

Use leftover wrapping paper or cut up brightly coloured comics to make bunting.

 

First make a triangle template from a piece of card about 20cm wide and 23cm deep - you could use an old cereal packet.

 

Cut out as many triangles as you need from different papers. To personalise it, you could cut the letters of a name from contrasting paper and glue each letter onto a triangle.

 

Cut string to required length. Fold 3cm onto wrong side across top of triangles over string and glue in position. Hang up bunting.

 

Wrapping paper, Paperchase

 

Tip: If you're hanging part of the bunting vertically, glue or staple the triangles to the string to stop them slipping.
