Welcome to Day #1 of Kick Off to Summer Week, a multi-blogger event co-host by Lauren of From Gate to Plate and Summer of Summer Scraps. With summer quickly approaching and Memorial Day in a few weeks, we wanted to make sure you had plenty of ideas for your Memorial Day activities. Each day we will be serving up a variety of different appetizers, main dishes, desserts, decor, printables and more all centered around the up-coming Memorial Day. We hope you enjoy all of these wonderful ideas. Tune in each day starting with Monday, May 12 and ending on Saturday, May 17. We have great prizes up for grabs throughout the week so you will not want to miss out on any of the days! Follow #KickOffToSummerWeek2014 on Twitter to keep up to date with all of our spectacular ideas and giveaways!
For me, I’m all about making things easy but still having something fun to decorate the BBQ table. So today, I’m sharing a BBQ banner printable that you can print off and use all summer! If you print it on cardstock, it will be much more sturdy. And if you use pearl cardstock, my new favorite, it will have a fun shimmer to it! You can also take the file to Kinko’s or any other printing place and have them do it for you.
