DIY Watermelon Corkboard
We’re loving all our watermelon consumption these warm summer days. The kids are out of school, it’s time to shave our legs again, dust off the grill and eat watermelon. It’s not enough for us to just eat the juicy, pink fruit this summer – we want to hang it up on the wall too!
This DIY watermelon corkboard and pushpins makes for a lovely teacher and hostess gift, and it’s a great pop of color in one’s office space. Wayfair, one of the world’s largest online destination for all-things-home thinks so too, because they shared our tutorial with their readers.

These DIY ABC Block Cupcake Toppers are easy and adorable…and edible if you just can’t help yourself. It’s semi-homemade, so it will look like you took the time to make it special, but you don’t even have to turn on your oven. Win, win!
Ingredients:
- Earth’s Best Letter of the Day Cookies, Very Vanilla
- Sugar Cookie frosting {we used the store-bought kind}
- Sprinkles
- Cupcakes
Directions:
- Make groups of 6 cookies on the counter.
- Add frosting to one edge of a cookie {this will be your base}, and quickly place another cookie along the line of frosting.
- Repeat until you have 4 sides. Every time you add a cookie, be sure to add frosting along its side, so it can stick to the cookie next to it. Be gentle with the block while the frosting is still wet.
- Once you have all the sides, add frosting to the tops of all the cookies, and add the top cookie.
- Gently place the block on the counter, and let the frosting dry for 5-10 minutes until it hardens.
- Pour a pile of sprinkles in a small bowl.
- Add a small strip of frosting along all the sides and side-by-side dip the wet frosting into the pile of sprinkles until its fully coated. After all the sides have been covered with sprinkles, set aside to let dry.

Sheep Baby Shower
This baby shower is so adorable, it made us want to count sheep all night. Then, after a night of no sleep, we want to get on a plane to visit Kyburg farm in Stellenbosch, South Africa…and take those sheep lanterns home with us as a souvenir. Oh, we’re not leaving without a bottle {or two} of wine, too.
The gorgeous DIY details at this sheep-themed shower were made by the talented, Tanya Murray.
Lizelle Lotter Photography, thank you for sharing the beautiful images with us.
To make the cute hanging sheep lanterns like Tanya did, simply cut out hands and feet from black paper, add google eyes to the head and glue them to white chinese paper lanterns,
