Hey guys, It's Christine back with the last installment of our Pirate Party series. I had a ton of fun making all the pirate themed decor, but I think the Mast is my favorite. So we will finish it up this week to complete the series!
If you need a reminder you can find the Mast Centerpiece DIY pt 1 here
Step Eight:
With the ribbon, measure the length from your mast to the end of the table and cut 2 pieces of ribbon to that length. Mine was about 2 and a half feet, but I am using a card table so it is quite a bit smaller than most.
Step Nine:
Take out your pirate paper and cut 4” off the paper. I had some 12x12 scrapbook paper lying around that fit perfectly, so my first cut was 4”x12”. I made triangular cuts (i believe its an isosceles triangle?) and I got 7 “pennants” with that cut. Cut as many as you need to run the length of your ribbon
Step Ten:
Starting in the middle of your ribbon, glue the first pennant onto your ribbon. Then go out from there making sure to space evenly. I liked the pennants touching so it was easy, but I wanted to make sure it was symmetrical.
Step Eleven:
Glue one end of each ribbon to the inside of the dowel, then tape the other to the end of the table and Voila! You have a super cute centerpiece for your pirate table!
You made it! I am so proud we got to the end, but i promise you, its more labor to type it up than it was to actually make the centerpiece!
Hope you enjoyed this DIY! Next months’ theme is Name Your Car Day...... Just kidding, its Halloween! But we will nix the candy corn and silly ghosts for something a little more chic!
Thanks guys!
Christine
