Summer & Back To School Crafts

Hello crafty lovers! I have been checking things off my list, which is good. Now counting down the few weeks left of summer and how to spend our time crafting. While having coffee I came across this easy, nature loving craft tutorial and thought I would share it with you. It is for this lovely hanging birdbath tutorial!



These and more tutorials are from Familyfuntogo.com. They also have back to school projects you can do. This one could be with your young sewers or for your youngsters. Hey, you can even use this one for yourself book-blankets. Imagine making one of these for yourself and using the pocket for your coffee card! Perfect for after the kiddos are dropped off at school and you have time to run to the coffee shop for a break to read for an hour. When I make a version of this, I promise I will share.


The nice thing I found about my first visit to this website is they have so many categories and articles that are interesting from crafts, recipes, travel, printables, parties and more. So if you have kids I know you will really find somethings you can use and enjoy when you visit. And if you don't have kids you might find some crafty projects that you like for you, just like I did! 


I just might have to make Sammie an end of summer cake prior to her going back to school. Just a little treat for a wonderful summer good-bye. Aloha summer! Oh, how I wish summers would never end! I just love traveling in summer, escaping the heat and finding the perfect get- a-ways and enjoying the endless lazy days.
What is your favorite thing about summer?
