Abstract: An ornamental bunting includes: a length of fabric folded to form a plurality of pleats; and a crimping member having a pair of wings each having a row of teeth. The crimping member is operable upon application of an inwardly compressive force to substantially permanently deform from an open position to a closed position in which the rows of teeth are brought in close proximity to one another to maintain an end of length of fabric in a gathered condition between the rows of teeth.
