A nice new set of printables from Julie at Little Sightings (you might remember her fab candy jar labels and table numbers freebie in the past). “Inspired by the desert with its golden sand and pale blue sky,” her latest turquoise meets gold collection is a  just what I needed. Ahh. A gentle reminder that Summer is almost here.  Now go grab yours here and enjoy!

Fastfood takeout lovers, don’t throw that drink caddy from last night just yet!  Check out this fab DIY re-use of kraft drink carriers (from Sonic!) by Dandee Designs. Great as gifts to friends or as eco-chic centerpieces for your next party (use them to decorate your tables then share with guests afterwards as favors).  And that awesome “HELLO” banner?  Why it’s a free download to boot. Woot!

Because you know I can’t get enough of labels (particularly the French vintage kind ;-) ), here’s a few more to incorporate bright and happy as ‘lemonade’ into your celebration.  And for some Tuscan (Provence?) flair, I’m loving the garland embellished with citrus fruits. The beautiful green leaves and the aromatic citrus fruits (not to mention the yummy mix of royal blues and yellows!) create a tantalizing combination, don’t you think?  Totally bookmarking these for future use!

Happy weekend folks!
