element of the day: bunting

salt and cloth moves a bit beyond the table at times with coordinating decor, and bunting is one of those elements that just ties a great tablescape together. It seems these days you just can't get enough bunting. It's all over Etsy and DIY-ers are tackling their own custom bunting right and left. We thought we'd take a minute to sift through the variety of options available and give you our top five favorites.
