Summer Bucket List

I'm linking up with Hadar, Teri, and April for their Summer Bucket List Linky Party!!
Here's what is on my summer bucket list....

1. Crate Seats - I'm hoping to get my mom down here to help me make these! I'm envisioning cool blues and greens for mine. I'll either get lime crates and aqua polka dot fabric or vise versa. Maybe some of each.

2. Pendant Banner for over my windows - Like Babbling Abby's, again in blues and greens and maybe a yellow ribbon for the top

3. Some curtains to cover cluttered shelves - I'm going to use a tension rod and fusible webbing to do my hemming and this cute dog fabric.

4. Spend more time at the beach/pool - it is our backyard after all!

5. Find a good book to read - anyone have any suggestions? I've read so many it's hard to find good ones that I haven't read.

6. Get my fall units done for TPT - I've started, but haven't finished Back to school, scarecrows, fall, halloween and thanksgiving!! That's a lot to finish!

7. Make one of these Organizers - I love this blue and green combination!

8. Make a Brownie Points Magnetic Board for Class Rewards, though I want to make mine puppy themed with bone shaped magnets and a cute saying like "training treats" or "puppy treats"

And that's it! What's on your bucket list? And do you have a good poolside book for me?

  1. Sounds like a busy summer! Jealous of your beach backyard!
    Mariah Stewart has a pretty good series out "Mercy Street Novels" There's 3 that I've read and they're a good read for the summer! I got them through the library on loan for my Kindle...love....love ....love the Kindle.
    I'm reading "Learn Me Good" right now and it's kinda funny!
    Enjoy!

  16. I created the brownie board. The only problem I have had is keeping the laminated words on the edges keep coming off. I have tried 3 different types of glue and they have all failed. Any ideas?
