One of my nieces celebrated her first birthday in July, I was umming and ahhing over what to make for her. I made this:
It’s cute but I wasn’t convinced about it’s suitability for a 1st birthday gift, maybe as a set of 3 it would work but I didn’t have the energy to make 3!
Then at last I remembered that I had made her sisters name out of letters for her first Christmas and gifted her some bunting for her first birthday:
Can’t quite believe I just found that photo, if I’d bothered to hunt for it I could have made letters in similar fabric, instead I made these:
So these can be added to the bunting when celebrating her birthday for years to come and I believe that for the rest of the year they are up on her bedroom door.
I’ve a nephew with a first birthday coming up next month so I’ll see what inspires me for that, have you got any suggestions?
Grand idea with the bunting, but for the nephew, erm, stacking cubes?
Ahhh! the letters to add her name are such a great idea. We have a happy birthday bunting too, we hang every time we celebrate one. I may borrow your idea one of these days.
