The other day I was mentally berating myself a bit for not having made anything yet for Valentines day and I suddenly remembered, I have bunting! Go me! In fairness I made this a couple of years back, just before I started this blog and a very small, slightly dodgy picture of it made it’s way into one of my first ever posts about how to make super quick felt bunting, but I figure as that was nearly two years ago and basically only me and my mum saw the post, it might be ok to look at it again?! After all, it is nearly Valentines Day, who doesn’t want some quick Valentines bunting?!
To make this super easy and quick valentines bunting all you need is some coloured felt and a meter or two of ribbon.
Cut out some heart shapes, I do this free hand as I’m way to lazy to do a template and I like to get stuff done quickly!
You can sew the hearts onto your ribbon free hand but it will take you a while. If you’ve got a sewing machine you can do this in a couple of minutes! Take the sewing slowly or it may bunch up. Its likely that your machine won’t really fancy the sudden change in thickness so be prepared to move your presser foot up and down if you have to. I promise you this is still super quick to make even with doing that!
And there you go, bunting made and your room decorated! This a great quick and cheap little project you can do to make your room look fancy but as it’s so simple it would also be suitable if you have a child that’s learning to sew.
Like it? Don’t forget to pin it!!
What a lovely activity – I cannot sew freehand or on a machine.
Have you linked this up with #Getyourcrafton ?
What a great idea and so simple.
That looks lovely!
Lovely! Bunting is so easy to make, although my Hallowe’en spider one was a bit fiddly!
Sweet! Am pinning and might give this a go 🙂
That is adorable – I can sew free hand and have to as I’ve no machine however I must invest as there is too much I want to make – this included!
Really cute. I’m the same, I have to do things quickly.
It looks great! I’ll pin it now
Wow – this looks so lovely! I’d keep it up all year round, especially in my bedroom, which is very girly 🙂
The simplest ideas are very usually the best 🙂
That’s so sweet…I love hearts and would have those up at any time of the year!!
Wow, it looks lovely.
It would make a fantastic decoration for a little princess room 🙂
Ah so pretty – best not let Kitty see this else she’ll set me to work make some for her bedroom!
What a great idea
Cute! I might actually make some and surprise my husband by making an effort this Valentines! ; )
That is such a lovely idea and may have to give it a go with Eliza
This bunting looks wonderful and sounds so easy to make. Must give it a go 🙂
What a lovely idea! So cute x
This is so cute Kate! 🙂

This is brilliant, just so simple. i need to get my sewing machine fixed and then I can make some too.
We love this – must get the pinking shears and the sewing machine out!
Wow, very pretty but I can’t say I’ve put decorations up for Valentine’s Day EVER in my life! Am I the Valentine equivalent of a ‘bah humbug’?
Super pretty – would love to try this. Pinned.
Great idea. I have an embroidery foot for my machine so I could do lots of swirls on the hearts as well.
So cute!
Thank you 🙂
