Vintage school clip art

 

Thanks for stopping by!

 Today I'm sharing a few of the

vintage clipart images I found on the internet

for a back to school

theme table I'm working

on this week!

 

Sometimes I like the black and white

imagery for simplicity

and easy on the budget toner printing.

 

But then I also like to be able to use color

to tie in my theme and dishes.

This school boy with his dog is

an adorable image, which reminds me of my grandsons.

 You can never go wrong incorporating

apples, pencils or chalkboard into

your back to school theme!

I love the botanical feel of the apple image above.

 

 

Finally I selected a plain chalkboard image,

I think this would be cute printed out as place cards

and then writing each child's name with a

word of encouragement.

 

Stay tuned to my Facebook, Instagram and

this blog for more ideas all week for

Back to School parties,

tables, recipe and craft ideas!



Mee Maw's Ice Cream Social

Thanks for stopping by!

Today I'm sharing the setup I prepared

for my annual Camp Mee Maw,

which is one week in the summer

that my husband and I take off work

to spend with our grandsons.

This year I thought we'd host an ice cream social.

The boys went to the grocery with"'Pops"

my husband and picked out

ice cream, whip cream, toppings etc.

for their ice cream treats.

 I used paper cups and napkins

to keep clean up easy so

 we could move onto more fun things!

I just love these spoons that say "pour more"

for the fudge cup

and "top it off" for the toppings tray.

 To keep the table somewhat

sticky free I used

these ice cream paper placemats.

I hope it made it a special memory.

What kinds of special treats are you

indulging in this summer?

Make it a beeutiful day!

 



Ice Cream Floral Fun

Thanks for stopping by today!

This is our ice cream social week.

On Facebook & Instagram

we are sharing some ice cream idea

displays at the store,

plus recipes and party ideas

all this week.

 

 Today we're offering some

Pinterest inspired floral arrangements

for your ice cream social,

baby or bridal ice cream theme

or just a summer get together.

 I love that most of these use

compotes, cones (paper or real)

or old fashioned sherbet glasses

that you may already have or

could get a the dollar store.

 These would be easy to do with

grocery store bought

bouquets or flowers from the yard.

 Loving the addition of the straw!

 I also love the idea of

using paper that matches

your theme to make

cones for the "ice cream" flowers.

Hanging from the back of guest's chairs would be so cute!

 These last two pictures use real fruit

in combination with flowers,

strawberries above and cherries below

are a inexpensive way to incorporate a food element

into the arrangement.

I hope you enjoyed these floral ideas as much as I did!

Thanks again for stopping by~

make it a Beeutiful Day!
