Yep, it's a braided fabric border. It's really rather easy. If you can braid hair, you can braid fabric.
Cut three strips, staple the ends together, braid, staple the ends together, staple the braid to the bulletin board, and repeat. Easy cheesy for a creative look.
Thanks to Tara for letting me link up again!
Too cute! That would go really well with my fabric backed bulletin board. Thanks for the idea. (I only have one bb I am they are not my fav. I just line the walls with kids work)

ReplyDeleteWanted to tell you that my husband and I made it to Wimbledon last week (sortof by accident) and it was a great time! Did you watch the final on Sunday?

Kelli, oh man. You went to Wimbledon? That is so sweet. I taped the final, but I haven't watched it yet. If only Pete Sampras were still playing. (Don't worry. Blogging has its frustrating moments!)
DeleteYes, after chatting with you about it a couple weeks ago, I thought-we are living in Wimbledon, we must walk over and do this!! So glad we did! It was sooo English--Pimms etc!
DeleteKelli
It's the simple things in life that make the most sense!! Braided fabric- that is a genius idea & it is so super cute. I love it Tammy! :)
