My husband has been working a lot of 16 hour shifts lately. I usually look forward to him coming home because it gives me a little break and he’s who we would consider “the fun parent” around here. He’s so creative and can make up games to play at any given moment. I on the other hand have to plan out our activities. I’ve been trying to do weekly themes like we did last Summer but it hasn’t gone very well scheduling wise. Since he was working all weekend and my oldest was away I decided to put together a fun nautical themed party for the younger two. Here is a sneak peak of what I made..
I made these nautical mason jars using the Braid Die and the kids loved them! My daughter said it was her fancy lemonade cup.
The dies I used are from the new Lifestyle Crafts Maritime collection that was released today.
Don’t you just love the whale and crab dies? They are just too stinkin cute! I think the whale and sailboat dies would be great for baby onesies or even for an under the sea party.
I also surprised the kids with a new book and bubbles to play with after lunch. I am in love with this bag, the Sailboat Die is so cute!
Lifestyle Crafts is also releasing their Fall Core Collection this week so get ready for some new project tutorials! :)

July 18, 2012 at 2:34 pmI love what you did with the mason jar. I would’ve have picked a different color combination, but blue and baby yellow works great for that “kid’s party” vibe. Did you get the lid together with the mason jar?
