Show 'N Tell: A Summer of Fun

If you're an addicted avid blogger like me, you already know that the Summer To Do List is all the rage.

I love, love, LOVE the idea and have made ours. We worked on it all day, but I did finish it (and it's only 7 after midnight!). Here are my inspirations: Home Stories A2Z, Clean Mama, & East Coast Mommy. You won't believe the inspiration you get from other's great ideas all fleshed out! You should totally go check out these three great ideas!

I just made it my own after stealing borrowing some of their ideas, plus things my little brown-eyed boy thought up!


 

First, compile your list. This took us a long time. We are both, however, complete spazzes (is that even a word?!)

 

 Cut our your lists into little strips. We printed ours on super cute (coordinating) paper. I know...I'm a total geek. {Also - how did I talk D into purple, gray, and green?! I don't know, but I love it!}


Modge 'em onto leftover Crystal Light containers. {I may or may not have an endless supply of these. I think I might drink a gallon a day.}


 Print cute labels on more coordinating paper and apply. See below.



Super cute, easy, cheap {in my case, FREE!}, and I think it will help us to do different things this summer and keep us on our toes! No one wants a boring summer when one can have a Summer of Fun!

I know, right?! AH.Mazing! ;-)

What's on YOUR Summer of Fun checklist?? {Official or not...I wanna know so I can steal it from you give you a virtual high five!}

    Looks great, I love the idea of separating them like that! The containers look lovely in those papers, thanks for sharing.

    Great idea...much more fun than the yellow writing tablet our list is written on.
    Thanks for sharing.

    These are super cute! We do a list yearly not just for summer of places we want to go and things we want to do. We all get to add a few and then cross them off throughout the year. We don't always get to all of them but some. Its a yearly bucket list. Thanks for stopping by my blog! Have a great rest of the Sunday.
