Happy Mail Craftalong 2021 ~ Monthly themes and Birthdays too!

Housekeeping!

I will set up a poll for July themes next Sunday (May 2) and will let it run for one week. If you have any theme ideas for July let me know before May 1st is over! :slight_smile:

Iโ€™ll also be updating our Birthday list to add June babies :partying_face: kittykill and myself have June Birthdays, anyone else? Itโ€™s really the best month to have a birthday in :wink: heeheehee

Ok, that is all :slight_smile:

I liked tea party as a theme. Strawberries are good too, June has the Strawberry full moon.

Adding fruit to the list!

Current July Theme Ideas:

  • Picnic
  • I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream
  • Music in the park
  • Go fly a kite
  • Use your stash
  • Tea party / July high tea
  • Fruit pie July

(I might try to cute-en up the themesโ€ฆ weโ€™ll see :wink:) Any that have high votes that donโ€™t โ€œwinโ€ will likely be added to Augustโ€™s list too. And as always, the themes are just for fun, make whatever you want! lol

Me! Iโ€™m a June birthday.

My brain is combining all these ideas into one big lettuce-y Tea Party in the Park - we can sit on our picnic blankets and have tea and fruit pies and strawberries and ice cream and fly kites and play music and make things from our stash โ€ฆ I guess I like all the suggested themes :smile:
