For this DIY Series, we'll teach you how to use products from our site to add the perfect, personalized touch to a birthday. First, using postcards to make birthday bunting!

Bunting's all the rage and you don't need a lot of resources to pull it off in time for a birthday bash. "Bunting," for those unfamiliar with the term, is usually a decoration with a number of flags sewn to rope webbing.

With the proper postcards from Zazzle, you can easily spell out a special birthday phrase, name or message.

Supplies:

Step 1: After receiving your personalized bunting postcards, cut each postcard according to the decorative edge of the template.

Step 2: String an appropriate number of mini-clothes pins to match the number of cards.

Step 3: Attach postcards to clothespin.

Step 4: Spread the cards evenly on the twine (feel free to add a knot after each clothespin to secure the card's placement).

Step 5: Cut the twine at the desired length and display on a wall in the center of your party.

You're done!

In our next DIY Birthday Series, we'll show you how to make cupcake wrappers with flyers.
