2. American Flag Origami Snack Toothpicks (for Memorial Day, 4th of July, or Veteran’s Day) ~ Making these cute American Flag Origami hearts is addictive. The author uses them as toothpick toppers for bringing snacks to Fourth of July or Memorial Day picnics. They really make your food stand out. They are also great for quick origami projects and decorations for Flag Day, Constitution Day, Presidents Day, etc.
3. Tiffany Blue, Fucsia & Giraffe Print Baby Sprinkle Shower ~ This Baby Sprinkle shower idea was submitted to provide others with party ideas and inspiration for their own Baby Sprinkle or shower. This particular party was thrown for a baby girl but the Fuscia can be easily substituted with any other color or simply left at the Tiffany Blue and Giraffe Print. Super cute!
4. Little Bo Peep Birthday ~ Here’s another party idea submitted with ideas to share so that you can throw a Little Bo Peep party, too! Shows a Little Bo Peep Birthday Party with adorable invitations, food, games and decorations all sheep related {like party favors that said we hope you had a woolly good time}.
5. Rustic Mother’s Day ~ Mother’s Day is over, but this Rustic party idea can be used year round. Full of Whimsy Parties used lots of burlap and lace, twine and grapevine twigs to tie the rustic feel in. The center piece was cupcakes embellished with fresh flowers and greenery. The color palette was simple with just a hint of color, so she used peachy pink paper straws and ivory with hints of pink roses. So cute!
6. Pottery Barn Tilly Pillow Cover Knock Off ~ Learn to make this Pottery Barn pillow cover worth $35 in just few bucks. Plus its super easy. All you need is 1 yard of white fabric and one yard of pink fabric, or a color of your choice, and a sewing machine.
7. Puffy Paint Cell Phone Case ~ Remember puffy paint? It’s coming back! {{wink}} Take that ugly, old cell phone case and give it new life. Use puffy, or three-dimensional, fabric paint to doodle on your cell phone case. Let the paint dry and youve got a personalized phone case unlike any other. If you get tired of that design, simply peel the paint back off and begin again with a fresh, clean canvas. Change your phone case decor based on holidays, seasons or even let your kids draw a special picture just for you.
8. Cereal Box File Folders ~ File folders are expensive yall. Especially when you dont need a million at a time. However, reusing boxes you already have is free, eco-friendly, and adorable. All it takes is about 10 minutes and a thin cardboard box (like a cereal or frozen pizza box), scissors, a pencil, and an old file as a template. You can even add in some decorative packing tape and a label maker if you want to get fancy. {{knuckle bumps}}
9. American Sparklers ~ I just love this free printable sparkler idea that can be used for Memorial Day and 4th of July! Just spray paint sparklers and download and print tags and then tie on sparklers.
10. Twisty Bun Tutorial ~ This Twisty Bun Hair Tutorial is Perfect for the Spring and Summer Months. One of the great things about this hair style is that it can be dressed up or down and can be used for day time or evening and itll keep you cool and looking fabulous!
