Craft Your Own Ice Cream Social Party | damask love

This is not a drill.

July is National Ice Cream Month. Govern yourselves accordingly…which clearly means: It’s time to craft your own ice cream social party! Right?!

I’m inviting you to the Damask Love ice cream social in hopes of giving you some inspiration for your own party. Each element of my party has been crafted on the Cricut Explore, which means you can replicate this party for your own friends and family! Follow along as I tour you through each DIY project that makes this ice cream social way better than the one’s you attended in grade school.

HOW TO MAKE AN ICE CREAM SOCIAL INVITATION

Any respectable party needs an invitation, so let me show you the one I created for this event.

All of the cutting and writing on this invitation was done with the Cricut Explore!  I added “sprinkles” to the cone with paint and Q-tips.

HOW TO MAKE AN ICE CREAM CONE STAND

Since you’ll want to serve plenty of ice cream at your party, I figured it’d be cool to have a place to put your cones so guests can quickly grab their favorite flavor. I was able to create my own ice cream cone stand with the Cricut Explore!

  4. Hi, I love your creativeness. I am planning an ice cream party for my daughter. I would really love to use your patterns, but I am unable to open the cricut design pattern. Is there any way you can help with this? Thank you!

  5. Hi guys. I just fell in love with the posture correction chairs from https://corechair.com/feel-comfortable-and-supported-with-posture-correcting-chairs/ . I recently found out about an opportunity to improve my posture and relieve my back tension with these chairs, I immediately decided to give them a try. The results exceeded my expectations! Sitting in this chair is simply pleasant and comfortable, and the innovative features help maintain proper posture and align the spine.
