Ranelagh Street Party

My neighbourhood street party was on last Sunday. Held as an annual event in the Summer it is always a fun afternoon where the neighbours socialise and get to know each other over delicious food and drinks.

I decided to make some bunting for the event and sourced pretty fabric in WM Trimmings on Capel Street. Capel Street is a car free street in Dublin City and every time I visit this street I marvel at the changes to it since the cars were banned from it a little while ago. Dublin City Council have done a great job adding planting and seating to the street.

Here's the fabric I bought in WM Trimmings


I brought macarons to the party which I attempted to match to the colour of the bunting I had made! 


And here's how the bunting looked strung up on railings from the 1850's in this Ranelagh cul de sac!

It was a pleasant day with the weather generally behaving itsef with one or two light showers between sunshine. Overall a perfect day in Ranelagh.....
