Happy Independence Day, friends! Today I want to share some of my favorite red, white and blue (and summer inspired) DIY projects and recipes with you! First up, these donut hole skewers by Val So Cal are such a sweet idea for a festive gathering!
We love a cold treat! Firecracker Ice Pops by Martha Stewart + Pomegrante and Purple Basil Gin Smash by Bakers Royale.
These Sriracha Lollipops by Sprinkle Bakes are so cool and interesting. Weird, but cool... right?
These DIY polka dot shorts by Say Yes To Hoboken are adorable. I'd wear these in a heartbeat.
I'm loving this Summer Manifesto Book by Ali Edwards. Anything that makes you pause and enjoy the present season is amazing in my book!
These DIY American Flag Shorts by Fashionable and Me are really cute!
I'm going to a family BBQ tonight. What are your plans for the day? Did you try any new recipes? xoxo. elsie




Happy 4th July too! Have a lovely day.
I've rustled up Patriotic Oreos - think oreos dipped in white chocolate and fun fetti. Outrageous!
Have a great day!

I have got to try that little fruit-and-donut-hole skewer! It would be perfect for a brunch. Also, those shorts are pretty much the cutest thing I've ever seen. Thanks for the festive post! :)
