FAQs
What age is this bunting suitable for?
This craft kit is generally suitable for children aged 3 and up, with younger children likely needing adult assistance for threading and supervision during colouring.
How long is the finished bunting when assembled?
Each flag is approximately 20cm long. The total length will depend on how you space the flags along the provided thread, but it will be around 1.5 meters or more.
Can I use markers or crayons instead of the included pencils?
While you can use other colouring tools, markers might bleed through the paper, and crayons may give a different finish. The included pencils are specifically chosen for this paper type.
Are the flags waterproof?
No, the paper flags are not waterproof and should be kept away from moisture.
Can I reuse the bunting year after year?
The bunting can be reused for multiple Easters if handled with care and stored properly in a dry environment. However, as it is made of paper, it may show signs of wear over time.
Are the materials non-toxic?
The product is intended for children's craft activities. While specific non-toxic certifications are not detailed, it is designed for safe use by children under appropriate supervision.
Troubleshooting
Pencils not colouring effectively
Ensure the paper surface is clean and dry. If pencils feel waxy, try sharpening them or gently rubbing the tip on a scrap piece of paper.
Thread is difficult to pass through flag holes
Carefully fold the end of the thread over a few times to create a firmer tip, or use a needle (with adult supervision) if the thread proves too difficult.
Paper flags tear easily
Handle the paper flags gently, especially when threading. Avoid pulling the thread too tightly through the holes.
Colours smudge easily after application
Allow ample time for the pencil colours to set before handling the flags extensively. Avoid touching the coloured surfaces immediately after completion.
