Backyard BBQ with Cricut.  Over the last several weeks, I have had the pleasure of joining the Cricut Party Blogger Kick Off Campaign.  So many amazing party bloggers have used their Cricuts to create amazing parties.  This is the final week, and it is all about family celebrations. We love summer bbq’s, the more often we can cook outside, the better!  Bonus for having friends and family join for a day of fun and food!  And, if you follow my blog, at all, you know I can rarely go a week with out using my Cricut for a party or event!

Back Yard BBQ, Red Gingham, Vintage, S'mores, DIY, Backyard Party, Coca Cola, Carnival Ring TossI love classic Americana style.  Rustic, old wood smell, rusty old metal, worn paint…everything my outdoor space is.  So, for this BBQ, I wanted to use classic Americana decor.  Summer time screams red gingham to me, so I grabbed a few gingham table cloths and started working.  Obviously, red was my primary color, so embellished my vintage milk cooler and picnic caddy with my Cricut and red Cricut vinyl.  I also added some blue Cricut iron on vinyl to some gingham can koozies from the Target Dollar Spot.  I really, REALLY wanted red gingham pennant bunting…but, what seems to be true to my life right now, I didn’t decide until I had to have it until it was too late to order any.  So, I asked my Cricut friends how to cut fabric, and I went to JoAnn’s and bought a few yards of red gingham fabric and some fusible iron on backing. I applied the backing to the fabric, and then I cut pennants with my Cricut, not gonna lie, I said a few choice words, but overall, this.is.a.party.gamechanger!  I need to learn a few things before I will use this feature all the time, but, y’all, I made a party bunting! Back Yard BBQ, Red Gingham, Vintage, S'mores, DIY, Backyard Party

    Wow Jessica, I love everything in your Backyard BBQ party. All the rustic Americana nostalgic is a summer fun must do. Good job on the bunting.
