I had to wait a long, looooong time before I stumbled on this gorgeous bunting. What do you think? Was it worth the wait?
Some might have called me unbelievably picky when I was on the hunt for bunting suitable for our girls' bedroom. It had to be juuuuuuuuuust right. Not too colourful, and not too bold, plus the pattern had to tie in with the bedding, lampshade and curtains
It was a toughie, let me tell you! I searched high and low....
....and nearly squealed with excitement when I finally spotted this lovely long length brand new on eBay. It has such a pretty design. The bunting is very plain colour-wise: simple white cotton printed on both sides with soft florals and stripes in dark pinky-red.
On Monday, I'll be revealing our Modern Country Girls' Bedroom in its entirety....eeeek!
In the meantime, have a wonderful, wonderful weekend.

Lovely choice! Sweet, simple and feminine - gorgeous! x
Very pretty, Sarah. Looking forward to seeing the bedroom in its entirety. xx
Suits their bedroom to a tee... or a bunting.
It's gorgeous, feminine and very exquisite. Just the sort of mood you've been investing for that space.
Well done. It was worth the wait. Definetly.
Have a wonderful and romantic weekend.

it is so sweet and so you! great choice!
Gorgeous! I adore bunting. When I was searching for bunting for my girls' room, I too searched for something that wasn't too colourful or garish, with a pattern that would suit the room as they grew older. How I prayed that Cabbages & Roses would make bunting,since at the time (about 7 years ago) the idea of attempting to make anything myself was a ridiculous notion (This was me as a time-stretched career woman in London!). The closest I got was TheWHite Company, which at the time had some green in it, and I deliberated for ages whether I could handle the green, as though it were a life and death situation - ha ha!
I can't wait to see the whole room in it's entirety - I already know that it will be stunning.

Looks very sweet. Like the soft colors.
Have you ever made any bunting? Is it easy? I have a ton of material and and tempted to try... but am not the most handy of ladies when it comes to sewing!
I love the binding on each pennant. It is lovely...and I'm so excited to see the whole room together!
So nice and sweet !!..happy weekend..love Ria...xxx...

Hello,
Just found your wonderful blog.
I am in the process of renovating and decorating a cottage in the West County, as well as settling in to country life.
Inspiration indeed. Love the girls bedroom.

So pretty with just the right degree of softness. I think it is perfect for your girl's room.
It's so lovely! The bunting looks terrific with the wall color. The perfect shade of pink can be tricky but it looks like you found it.

So soft and sweet looking, perfect choice. I want to know all about those gorgeous curtains lurking in the background!
Loving the bunting, Sarah! It's so sweet and so English :) Perfect for a girls room. Can't wait to see more!
Gosh that bunting is scrummy. I have an absolute obsession with bunting! So much so that the night before my wedding, my mum decorated my entire room with it! It was like sleeping in a medieval tent! xx
...and of course you've chosen the most lovely bunting I've seen! So pretty. Can't wait to see it all together! ;) Pat
I love it, it's feminine and girly without being childish. I bet your girls will love it for years!
Oh my goodness...how absolutely beautiful!! Can't wait for the full bedroom reveal! x
Your style is so accessible. Your lovely girls are fortunate to have you guide them.
