My Fabric Banner and Other Things

Hello! We just finished having a massive garage sale this past weekend. Wow! Where did all that stuff come from? I guess 3 kids can really accumulate baby gear and toys like crazy. It was a little nauseating to see it all collected in one spot!
But....before the garage sale weekend, was Ella's birthday. I thought I'd share a couple of crafty decorations I made this year for her party - instead of the store bought kind.

The first picture is the fabric bunting/banner I had been wanting to make for some time. I ran across some cute fabrics at the craft store - and a cute polka dot towel (that's what started my "polka dot and cute theme" - is that really a theme???)

Below are some tissue paper "pom poms" (found instructions online).The polka dot balloons I found online: And here is Ella when I first hung the banner. She is telling me she likes "this one". I think it was the cherry one in the middle. :)

Okay, that's all for now! Got to run. I have a house with left over garage sale clutter that needs to be cleaned up and put away. Happy Tuesday!
