Got a random drink caddy hanging around? This one, from the Christmas Tree Shops, has been sitting in my she-shed for years. I loved the color, but it was really lacking personality. Fast forward to Pinterest, where I found this ice cold drinks printable. I simply printed it on to waterslide decal paper. I cut it to size and gave it a few coats of clear spray paint.

The 4th of July is right around the corner. So now is the perfect time to whip up some mini American flag pillows. Start with a small flag (mine is from the Dollar Store) and some backing fabric. I used a piece of coffee-dyed for my pillow. If you're using a sewing machine, turn the pieces inside out. If you're hand-sewing, leave them rightside out. Then just get busy stitching.
