Party pom poms


I'm seeing these lovely party pom poms in lots of magazines at the moment. Feeling slightly smug that I bought mine at Christmas in Wilko's for a bargainous price. Party preparations are proceeding apace now. I've made some more bunting.



I loved making the square bunting, it was so much less fiddly than triangles and I actually prefer the look of it. I had a go at some embroidery words and some fabric printing too.



It's a bit rough and ready, but that's my style ;) 


Currently fighting off a cold, which is not such good news. I don't want to accessorise my dress with a red nose on Saturday.



I see that everyone survived the big blog non-event on July 1st. However, I think I will now re-follow my favourites on Bloglovin'. Don't want to miss out. I enjoy the blogging community so much.
