Hi! It’s me Jaime ♥

I can’t believe the holidays are upon us! The summer & start of school flew by…

I made this tag bunting to remind my family & I of all that we have to be thankful for ~ so we would be reminded to stop and celebrate Thanksgiving with grateful hearts!

All you need to make one of your own is some manila tags, rub-on letters, twine, mini clothespins (my favorite) and some hearts cut from felt.

I found the rub-on letters at Michaels in the sticker isle, they come with a popsicle stick,

it’s super easy to do!

String the tags onto the twine …

I added strips of lace and ribbon on the ends to give it a bit of a vintage look. ♥

I used the mini clothespins to clip the hearts to more of the twine…

that’s it!  Hang it up and celebrate thankfulness!

Happy Crafting!
