The feeling of relief when Memorial Day weekend rolls around is one I know well. It’s kind of like a checkpoint on our calendars, a spot we can rest upon and know that from this moment on, the weather will be nicer for a while. Making it to Memorial Day means we can feel secure in our excitement over barbecues, fireflies, swimming pools and short shorts. It means it is officially not unreasonable to begin fantasizing about reading in a hammock on a sunny day, wearing flip flops, or whipping up an ice cold pitcher of lemonade. No wonder we throw parties every year to celebrate this weekend! And what’s a party without DIY party decorations?
If you’re having a barbecue at your house this Monday and slacked on the DIY party decor, don’t sweat it. We’ve got printables for hot dog holders, we’ve got an easy craft tutorial for napkin rings, and even some easy DIY centerpieces. Even if you plan to throw a laid-back get together, a Memroial Day craft or two can’t hurt. Plus…these patriotic craft ideas will only take you thirty minutes to make.
