Making your house a home - make your own bunting

Buy your own: https://www.etsy.com/your/shops/TheArtofSALiving/onboarding/listings/244672533

Equipment:
Material Ribbon
Stapler
3 different coloured cardboards (3 different pieces of cardboard give you about 1.5 m of banting)
Scissors/craft knife and ruler

Time to make: 45 minutes

Steps:
1. Cut cardboard triangles (3 per page)
Easiest way I found to do this:
a. Bend your paper in half, but don't fold it completely...just make a small indentation at the top and bottom of the page to mark half way
b. Again bend these halves in half...just make a small indentation at the top and bottom of the page to mark a quarter of the way
c. Use your ruler to connect up these indentations and the craft knife to cut

2. Lay out the ribbon
3. Place the triangles the distance apart that suits you (about 5 cm for me)
4. Staple  them down
