Crafts that I probably wont do this summer...

So. I've been pinning like crazy, and have found some totally AWESOME craft/ideas that i want to do this summer.

In all actuality it will be a shock if I complete more than 1, but you know... it never hurts to dream.



#1 Outdoor Scrabble!

I love scrabble! I have lots of cardboard! This would be so much fun.... That's my initial thought. My after thought is.... OMG who wants to cut all those letters out? and keep track of how many I need? And clean them up and take care of them?....

Truth- this one I will probably do...


#2 Tin Can Lanterns!! 

We use a TON of tin cans! and Pete always looks sad when i throw them away! (That boy gets sad when i throw away a TORN garbage bag... he has hoarder tenancies) This one seems simple enough... get tin cans, remove the label, paint, punch holes. Or is it punch holes and then paint? idk. but still.... I could do 4th of July colors or WHATEVER! I could make one for my room or for the porch...  yep. i'm definitely doing this... if i get the motivation...


#3 Pet Rock Tic-Tac-Toe!

Find some rocks. Paint them. Play tic-tac-toe. Idk if I'd be getting an entire segment of a tree to play on, that seems like a lot of work is required, but the rest... I can get my laziness behind this... Plus Jordan LOVES tic tac toe... 


#4 MERMAID NECKLACES!

This one is 100% for Jordan. I swear. I wouldn't want a sparkly shiny mermaid necklace... OK that's lies, all lies. WHO WOULDN'T WANT A SPARKLY SHINY MERMAID NECKLACE? THEY ARE TOTES ADORBS. hahahahaha. I just said tots adorbs... but i said it ironically, so its OK....

I have no seashells, no glitter, and no shiny rock thingies. This one may not be happening. anyone want to buy me all the supplies, and then make them for me? er... uh... i mean for JORDAN? 



#5 Tin Can "SODA" Holder...

This makes me think of a Tommy Boy quote.... because i would be using it for a six pack of....soda....

Again, this looks simple.



However mine would probably look more like this....



Please note the crooked stake thingie and horrible artwork...  I also have no idea how to actually attach the post-er-majigger.... anyone?



#6 Outdoor Scavenger Hunt!

except lets be honest, the first thing on the list would be "go get mommy a glass of wine" and after that... who cares??
