SPRING PARTY DRINK CHARMS + FREE PRINTABLE

Happy Monday folks. I was so chuffed to see my Down in Garden party shared on Babble last week (a lovely surprise thanks Gabrielle!). Seriously. Happy, happy.
With spring arriving, it's definitely heading into party time on this side of the world. Things are even getting warmer here in Edmonton too...it's been a long winter! : )
Enter my latest freebie for you all. These party drink charms are a great addition to your party arsenal as we head into barbie, outdoor living kind of weather. Throw away the paper cups and niko (aka sharpie) and pull out these re-useable tags made from Shrinky Dinks. And next time you're at a party and ask for a refill, you can tell them "mine's the mint/peach/aubergine one..."

Here's how:


1. Print this freebie design onto Shrinky Dink paper
2. Cut out and punch holes ready for hanging
3. Be mesmerised by the way the tags shrink down in size (enlist a small child to add to the wonderment)
4. Use ribbon or a silver charm ring to attach tags to your drinks. I used silver elastic for these mini glasses which worked really well.
5. Party On without mixin' germs!

COCKTAILS AT TIFFANY'S

I had a wonderful time away on the beach with my family in the sun. Great memories and fun times. I loved having some time out and getting some space from the daily onslaught of technology, blog and online shop, to actually step back and re-asses, but more on my musings about that next week...

Today it's time to launch "Cocktails at Tiffany's" This is the third of my new designs I am (slowly) introducing you to. (You can see the first ones here - Cherry Love & Safari Park.)

This was a custom invite design I did for a friend's 30th earlier this year, but I loved it so much I thought it would be a great addition to my range as a complete collection. Something for us women-folk! With personalised text, it would be a perfect theme-setter for a bridal shower, 25th, 30th or 40th birthday. Or even an anniversary or engagement party. So pretty and chic! Cocktails anyone?

So pretty right? I can't wait to see what you create with these printables. It's becoming a new favourite!
Tiffany Collection available in my store here.

COCKTAIL PARTY :: NEW DESIGN

Here's a little taste of one of the new designs that will be hitting my store shortly. A classy one for the ladies. What do you think? There will be matching accessories too!

I've been involved in some great publications and DIY projects lately. I'm hoping I can start sharing them next week. And Easter printables...done! Will be in store next week too...it's all happening around this place. Too much going on I get paralysed not knowing where to start sometimes! Anyone have that feeling?

Well, I hope you all have a lovely weekend. What are you up to?

Here are some fun things from around this blog/web world of late. 

:: Hear, hear, love this reminder that blogs are simply ONE facet of life! 

:: Another easy DIY party decoration 

:: I want these in my pool 

:: You up for this cupcake craze?

P.S. Have you heard of Pinterest? I'ts a fabulous way to store and categorise all those eye candy images you see around the place. I have started my mood boards and you can find and follow them here.
