With some birthday parties coming up I thought better make some new buntings. In The Netherlands we call them "slingers" and the are always a real party topper. When we came to New Zealand I brought some "slingers" with me but they are not the best ones anymore.
So it is time for a new one.
I looked through my pile of fabric and found some nice fabrics that match the colours in the house as well, spend a afternoon behind the sewing machine and we are ready for the parties.
I was cutting triangles and more triangles, more than enough for two long buntings, 7 meters each and there are still a lot of triangles left, so I like to make one to stock up my Etsy shop.

In between I did some painting. We've got a old wooden travel box from our neighbour. It was a dark brown smelly box but in a good condition and very use full. So there was my white paint
again and look what I made of it.

'Slingers' are beautiful aren't they. I always associated them with car yards and petrol stations but now some very beautiful ones are being made for in the homes. I love your box too. It looks strong enough to sit or stand on. Cherrie
repity is the word verification today - that is what you have done to your box!
Love the bunting.
Love the new white box.
And would really love to see more of the quilt sitting on top of it. Looks lovely!!

Your 'slingers' are beautiful - very girly! xx
