Christmas bunting
This, the simplest and the least expensive of the crafts, is my absolute favorite. So sweet and old-fashioned.
Book Page Christmas Bunting
Supplies
Old book, (a dictionary from Goodwill was perfect)
Ruler
Scissors
Baker’s twine
Glue stick
Christmas scrapbook paper
Buttons
Optional
Punch Tool in a Christmas shape (we used a snowflake)
Cutting tool used to cut the pages straight and clean (or just use scissors)
Use Cutting Tool or scissors to cut seven book pages into 7 x 4.5-inch rectangles.
Use scissors to cut triangles out of the bottom of each page.
Fold-down the top edge of each page, just enough to fit a length of baker’s twine inside the fold.
Use the Punch Tool or scissors to cut out snowflakes, or any other shape of your choice, out of Christmas scrapbook paper.
Use a glue stick to glue the snowflakes to the center of each piece of paper.
Then glue a button in the center of each snowflake.
Cut a 5-foot-long piece of baker’s twine. Use a glue stick on the folded edge and glue the twine into the fold.
Press down to seal.
Space the pages about 1.5-inches apart.
Hang your bunting on a mantle, in a window, or on a door, and enjoy!
