Lots of Leaflets

It's the Queen's 90th birthday this year - there has been all sorts of celebrations already, but there are big things planned for the weekends of 10th and 17th of June. She's a neighbour of ours - well Windsor castle is less than 5 miles away - and the villages are planning to go all out!

So we need bunting!

 

I've done a bunting class before as part of Craft Church, but it was quite a few years ago, so we thought we'd have another go. I was even given funding for fliers so I had my first go of printing leaflets with Vistaprint ... And they arrived today

 

Lots of them! Now bundled into 30s ready for distribution at the schools and churches, and brownies and scouts!

 

And in other news, I've finished a panel for a cupboard at school,

 

and used the left over bits to make bean bags for maths lessons: front...

And back

  2. I'm a bunting girl ... in a bunting worrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrld :D

    Love the math bean bags - I made sets of letter bean bags a few years ago to spell the names of some greats - number ones (good idea with the buttons on the back) would be nice for the newer (younger) greats, to go with their letters :O)

  7. Ooh - I love bunting. I have it outside around my log store, over doorways in the house and am always giving it away as gifts. Yours looks great on the flyers. What a super idea.
