The prospect of warm weather here has made got me thinking of summer days, summer nights, and all kinds of outdoor gatherings. You know what goes well with a cold beer (or mixer) while sitting under the pergola? My DIY Party Koozies, of course.

They’re unique, colourful, and a great hostess gift this summer. I made mine using my Cricut machines, and couldn’t be happier with the result. What are you waiting for? Crack open a cold one, sit back and relax.

Applying Heat Transfer Vinyl

 Apply your vinyl to the cutting mat using your applicator tool – it really does make a difference with air bubbles. Once you’re good to go, hit “Go” and cut the words! I did the project for each sheet of coloured Iron On, so I cut 5 sheets.

Combine letters, make combos, create patterns – test it all out on the koozies so that you’re not trying to figure it out with a hot EasyPress sitting there, beeping at you.

I am this week’s feature on the @littleyellowcou I am this week’s feature on the @littleyellowcouch podcast and I gotta say - FAN 👏🏻 GIRL 👏🏻 MOMENT. I had been listening since there were 2 hosts, and really got into it when I went full time with the blog during our first year posted to Gagetown. I found my colourful voice, and started making things like this beautiful glossy blue sideboard. 
There wasn’t really anyone else doing “colour” my way in the decor space at that time (everything was white farmhouse). And while there are definitely many more who do it now (and who do it better!), I’ll never forget the freedom I felt when no one was watching what I did. It has been so incredibly bittersweet watching new accounts lap me in a matter of months (and oh so humbling), but I like to think I’m exactly where I need to be. 
My growth has been slow by today’s standards, and I’m ok with it. I still get to do what I love. 
So, if you’ve been following me since then, the very beginning, or last week - stick around! Let’s see what the next stage is like.
