Our playroom seems to be a constant work in progress, changing as the boys grow older and as their interests change.

Lately the boys have been interested in cooking and shopping.  So I have been designing a corner in our playroom for imaginary play.  

This corner is currently an unfinished, but usable general store and restaurant, filled with real kitchen gagdets, a real phone, a real cash register, and the felt play food.  

As cool as it is, I'm just going to tease you with this information for right now since, like I said, it's a work in progress.  

However, I am going to show you the easy DIY felt bunting that I made to decorate the walls in this area of the playroom.  I promise it's easy to make, especially since I have even made a handy-dandy printable template for you.  And yes, it's free.

Materials You'll Need for this DIY Felt Bunting

What you'll need to make your own DIY felt bunting:

  • Triangle Felt Bunting Template - You can find the free pattern at the end of this post!
  • Ribbon
  • Felt in a variety of colors
  • Sewing machine or hot-glue gun

I simply cut out the number of triangles that I needed to decorate the space.  I also alternated between four colors, but that's optional.  Then I used a really cute brown and white chevron ribbon to attach the triangles into a bunting.  Straight sewing and done in just mere minutes!

I chose to sew my felt bunting, but you could easily use a hot glue gun if you're not the sewing type.

This DIY felt bunting was just the splash of color that I needed for our pale yellow walls of our playroom.  It brightened up the space, just like our DIY art display did.
