What is more popular than a BBQ this time of year? I created my own party supplies using the Savor line from Little Yellow Bicycle. Great bright colors with a cooking theme that is just perfect for all your summer get-togethers!!
When your guests arrive, let them see the theme continue with the decorations! I created a centerpiece with the word Barbecue spelled out in tags, banner-style. What I used for the base was simply one of those over-the-sink shelves, but with longer dowels (special thanks to my fabulous hubby for doing this part for me!).
I put pinwheels at the top of each dowel, which was a diecut put together with a brad. I created each hanging blue cardstock tag the same way... the "Whisk Briskly" whisks, green borders, brown letters. I took a regular single hole punch to punch out cherries from the "Savory Stripe" paper from the same line, to add just a little something extra on either side of the letters. Then added various matching ribbons through each tag and tied them to each other and onto the dowels.
Oh - and the cook - I couldn't help but add this since I had it... It comes from Quickutz/Lifestyle crafts. It is the "Paper Doll" and "Chef Costumes", and the grill came from the Enjoy Gift Set...all cut out with the same papers.
Isn't this banner/centerpiece super cute? I just love it and it's something that you can probably make from items you have around your house! This banner/centerpiece would be ideal for any occasion, a birthday party, shower, holiday... if you have a word you'd like to highlight, this is a great way to do so!
Thanks so much for sharing, Christina! I'm sure that everyone will be using this centerpiece as a great excuse to host a BBQ this weekend!
Check back in tomorrow for a look at one of Michelle's projects!
See you all soon!
