Every now and then I get super excited about a new product. {Ok, fine. Who am I kidding? I pretty much get super excited about every new creation and product.} I love what I do. You know this about me now.

But this one! ;) It’s technically called 'bunting', have you ever heard of that term before? You might know it as a garland or banner, so I’m calling it a garland-bunting banner so nobody gets confused {or everyone gets super confused} I’ve had six of these hanging in my house since the party last week and let’s just say I don’t want to take them down {ever} even though Sean, who is 6’5" has run into them multiple times. That’s how much I love these. {I’ve adjusted the height so Sean is free and clear because I love him more}

These make me seriously happy. It’s like a small collection of everything I’ve made over the last six years, from art imagery to fabric design, paper circles and fabric squares all together. And they come in the cutest little clear top tin.

And it’s colorful, just the right amount of color {especially for those, for whom just a splash of color is all that’s needed}. I love color. You also know this about me. {clearly after reading this post, you’ll also know that I’m loving the use of parentheses lately - whaaat is going on with these?? there must be a lot of subtext to my writing today}

So I’ve made these available for purchase over at the shop. Maybe they’ll make you just as happy? Or someone special that you {randomly}send one too? I think these would make the best gift. 

Each one is unique, no two will ever be exactly alike. And the beauty of these! is they are so light, you can hang them with clear tape, and they stay up! {who else is over party decorations that are too heavey and fall down?} or for fun, you could also attach them with some colorful washi tape?

I hope you will love them, because I love making them. Otherwise my house will be filled with these and Sean might not be able to move freely through our space. Don’t buy them for you, buy them for Sean.

I LOVE them!!!! Love the colors and the idea of having mini paintings hanging beautifully throughout the house:O)Awesome!!:O)
Are you sure you love Sean more? I mean, those are so cute? Just think about it. Kidding. =)

It's a very sweet bunting (I also didn't learn that term until becoming a part of the online sewing community).

I thought you might want to see a quilt I posted about today with your Ric Rac Rabbits and a little Gang. Thanks for making such fun fabrics: <a href="http://www.stitchedincolor.com/2012/07/ric-rac-rabbits-picnic-blanket.html">http://www.stitchedincolor.com/2012/07/ric-rac-rabbits-picnic-blanket.html</a>
