Lemonade Stand Home Decor Projects

We continue our week of Lemonade Stand inspiration with a couple of amazing home decor projects created by Denise and Tracee. Who knew this collection could make such a cute candy/cookie jar or an amazing summer wreath for your front door?!

Summer Sweet/Cookie Jar by Denise van Deventer


I created a sweet/cookie jar to place on my kitchen counter. I was inspired by the lovely fruit pieces in the noteworthy pack.  They remind me of all the things that I love about summer:- juicy watermelon, fruit on a stick and picnics in the park! I thought that I could even use it as an element in a summery table setting.


I used crackle paint for the foundation of my sweet/cookie jar and then added papers, some washi tape and lots of those gorgeous noteworthy pieces.


I also created these little umbrella's, which really were pinwheels to begin with and after some gentle persuasion, they became umbrella's. They took copious amounts of glue and patience, but I was really pleased with them in the end. I think they could be really cool for party features too!

Summer Wreath by Tracee Provis


The pretty vibrant colours of this collection lead you to imagine all things summer. I knew that I wanted to create a project that celebrated this gorgeous palette and what better way to display them all, than in a wreath for you to hang on the door or in your entrance hall.


I started by taking the Kraft Canvas Pleated Lace and attaching it to a circle of corrugated cardboard, for added interest I also attached a circle of the same corrugated cardboard that I wrapped in regular household string, I love the rustic look it gives to your projects. I then cut some scalloped borders from Double Dot cardstock to create and extra layer.


I cut rosettes from lots of the different papers in the collection both in the 12 x 12 and the  6x 6 paper pad. Using a hot glue gun I fixed them in a large cluster down the right hand side and a smaller cluster over on the left. I used lots of buttons and brads to create my centres and the summer stickers from the 12 x 12 sticker sheet made the perfect title. To finish it off I fussy cut a couple of tickets and tucked them into the rosette cluster, this now hangs in my hallway for all to see as they walk in the door.
