Beachy Bunting

Nana and Pap went on a weekend getaway (for the first time since I was 7!!), so Katie stayed with us.

We did several little projects while she was here, including cleaning out my craft closet, hat making (with the knitting loom I got her for her birthday), baking, learning to french braid, and a little hula hooping.

I will post more about those later.

One of my favorite projects from this weekend is this bunting we made to hang in my living room.

We used twine, scrapbook paper, and a template I found on Pinterest

I have been wanting something to tie this wall of beachy stuff together.

A bunting seemed to fit perfectly.
