this is SO cute! by the way, i really love the photo for this article.. the overhead view of the bucket with the banner spilling over onto the table. really cute!
i went a while without getting into tapes, and now i'm developing a real love for them! they just give the neatest little touch... something different.
i can see making a banner like this out of birthday tapes and draping it around a birthday cake on a footed cake pedestal!!
