Are you up for a cute and easy paper craft project?
I used this easy-to-make book page bunting to decorate a little reading nook I created in my daughter’s nursery, but it could easily be used to pretty up other areas around the home. A project like this is a versatile way to add a little whimsy to your home décor.
I'm not sure why I was inspired by Peter Pan for the nursery. The adorable quotes? The chance to use vintage clocks? It captured me one day and I couldn't shake the idea. There is something so whimsical and sweet about the story. Hold on to innocence for as long as possible... and while you're at it, never stop believing. I couldn't think of a better message to surround my baby girl with.
There are so many images that come to mind when you think of the timeless story, but I didn't want to fill the walls up with too much visual clutter. This easy bunting strand allowed me to incorporate some of the story's silhouettes in a quiet and charming way.
I started by printing the images onto the bookpages I had chosen. This was as simple as resizing the paper output in Microsoft word and adjusting the image to fit.
I trimmed the bottom of the page, and added some string...
...and kept going, spacing them out as I went.
A couple of thumbtacks and we had beautiful and simple wall decor.
