I've always loved kites and as a child I always wanted to fly high up in the air on the end of one - freedom!
Coupled with his project and my love for kites I thought why restrict them to outdoor use - why not make one out of fabric, purely for decorative purposes which I did
again
and again
and again
My next task is to make some little ones in bunting form which would be great strung through trees in the summer and great for parties. Watch this space!
Hope everyone's enjoying half term. Isn't it great not to do the school run?

What lovely little kites ~ they are very pretty and kite bunting sounds wonderful too. Half term has been and gone for us now and I'm now back to enjoying the peace and quiet! :O)x
What a lovely idea! On a windy day I love to watch all the colourful kites soaring above the beach.Bella barks at them! :0)
What a great idea! The bunting should look super too.
Oh Wow! They're fab and what great idea for the summer. Simple things. I must learn to let go creatively. Thanks for sharing..

i love kites.. but have never owned a proper one..when we were kids it was always a bin bag and bamboo sticks.. ours always flew better than the posh ones!!
I actually bought myself a kids kite last year to fly!!
I love , love , love this idea!! Would you mind if I made one too? I can just imgaine a kite and a hot air balloon in my conservatory - I think I must have a thing for flying away!
And yes no school run is just fab :) My youngest will leave school this year - so no school runs EVER - gulp!

How pretty, what a clever idea...you're very talented. I've been making some bunting, but just the ordinary kind.
Love your idea of the kites,would you mind if l pinch it for the kids.I think every body loves to fly a kite,perhaps you could do a tutorial.
Hugs Pat.
The kites are a lovely idea, and a unique change from traditional bunting Linda x
What a lovely idea - I am inspired, if only I could find some time & my marbles, I seem to have lost them this half term...
