One of the party decorations I knew I HAD to make for my boys party were these ruffled streamers I saw on MADE.
I was a little nervous, because my sewing skills leave something to be desired. I hesitantly bought 5 different colored pack of crepe streamer at Hobby Lobby and tried it out.
EASY PEASY. Like, seriously. I think it’s the perfect project for someone like me who has had problems getting the right tension when sewing. You want the paper to ruffle! I kept my tension at about 6 and everything came out perfectly! My machine was a little hot and bothered by the end of it, though.
The best part, though? The boys like them. AND they make a fantastic backdrop. I took some photos of Andrew on his birthday, yesterday. The streamers will stay up until after Nathan’s birthday on June 2.
Adorable! I love the colours you used too.
soooo cute!!! i might have to make these for our parent’s anniversary party.
as always…such great photos!!
Super cute! I love ruffled everything. The colors you chose are so fun!
How great do they look! I am going to have to remember this idea for when I have kids.
Now those are genius! I love them, going to have a go for my 50th next month! thanks for the ideas
you know how much i already was in love w/ the ruffled streamers… but can we talk about that wallpaper? OMG… I am having wallpaper envy.
