Check This
I thought it’d be fun to write out our summer list, display it and check off as we go. I figured if it were at eye level in a major traffic area, we’d be reminded of all the fun things we have planned for the upcoming hot months and be more likely to check them off quicker.
I just used the 8X10 frame from Elliott’s party that I hot glued mini rosettes onto and some Crayola Window Markers…

We did {pancakes & pajamas} today, but by ourselves….can’t cross that one off just yet.
Better get busy!

Dance is wrapping up for summer, too, and I wanted to make a little {thank you} goody for Elliott’s dance teacher.
Check this out…

3. Ribbon roll {Target dollar section}
4. Crinkle Shred {Target ~ $1.99…only used a tiny bit}

I already had a little watermelon gift card and some leftover clothespins. I just cut a strip of the brown paper and glued it around the caddy. Then, on the front, covered the edges with a little ribbon and more Elmer’s!
Super simple.
I think it turned out pretty cute for under 10 bucks…plus I now have the supplies to make many more of these cuties.
Yay…it’s Friday!
