The Swampers
Custom crafted tailgating decorations make a space all the more cozy & inviting. Whether hosting guests under the tent or in your home, Gator Bait Bunting paired with Florida Gator Football Bunting adds to the festive afternoon. Meander the swags through the center of the table, attach them to the top of the tent with tape or hang them on the mantle. Baby Gator Bait Bunting is a sweet touch for the bar or a small space that needs a little dose of team pep. Follow my instructions & be certain to have them game day ready.
