This weekend is the unofficial first weekend of Summer here in the States, so we thought it was a perfect time to remind you of some of the great summery projects in our archives.
1. Leave the Sand at the Beach Bag (A net bottom lets the sand fall right through.)
2. Marimekko Inspired Sneakers (Bright flowers and white tennies are so summer!)
3. Stars and Striped Bunting
4. Polka Dot Paper Lanterns (Made from empty toilet paper rolls!)
5. Princess Towel Dress for Belle and Cinderella
6. Embroidered Woven Placemat (Dressed up dollar store finds.)
7. Shark Hooded Towel (Scare everyone else off the beach.)
8. Waterproof Picnic Blanket (No wet bums here!)
9. Embroidered Shoes (Give those plain slip-ons some personality.)
10. Crocheted Stone Tablecloth Weight (Keeps the cloth on the table even in the wind.)
11. Knit Starfish (For when you can’t be at the beach.)
12. Knit Fish (To keep the starfish company.)
13. Metal Flower Fairy Lights (Made from disposable baking sheets.)
14. Stars & Stripes Rope Wreath
15. Stegosaurus Hooded Towel
16. Knit Octopus (To join your starfish and fish.)
17. Stars and Stripes Table Runner
We hope you have a safe Memorial Day weekend that kicks off a fabulous summer!
