What is Bunting?
Bunting was originally a lightweight worsted (the fibers lie parallel to each other) wool fabric used for making flags of the Royal Navy. The origin of the word is uncertain. Today, “bunting” is a term for any festive decorations made of fabric, plastic, paper, or even cardboard in imitation of fabric. Typical forms of bunting are strings of colorful triangular flags and lengths of fabric in the colors of national flags gathered and draped into swags or pleated into fan shapes. The term bunting is also used for a collection of flags, and particularly those of a ship. American flag bunting is the most common form of bunting you will see today. Americans love to decorate their houses with patriotic bunting.
