For those of you who still have some warm summer nights left, let Martha Stewart be your guide to make the last of summer a little extra special!
I love this idea for candle chandeliers. Such an inexpensive way to add some sparkle to your outdoor space.
Why not invite some guests over for get together to say farewell to summer nights with these cute lantern invitations?
Make your own drink umbrellas!
Keep bees away by covering food with an embroidery hoop and muslin.
And add some magic to your space with these vellum lanterns.

I'll try the umbrellas with the kids.:) They'll love it.
I love all these DIY projects! My first step would be to have a card-making party (love these cards!) and have fun drinks with those pretty umbrellas!
Wishing you a fabulous weekend!
Pretty summer ideas!
Always love the last few summer nights we have.
Those drink umbrellas are so much nicer than the ones you get in the store! Think I'll give them a go :)

Happy Sunday my dear friend...hoping you had a most relaxing day dearest
...smile on Rosie....
The embroidery hoop and muslin is genius! So practical and tasteful. Perfect for the Aussie summer coming up (CAN'T WAIT).
Bless what gorgeous ideas. The end of summer is such a magical time as you get this lovely light in the northern hemisphere at the end of the day...if only it wasn't signalling the end of summer!
I love the candles in jam jars, that's so sweet and super do-able. Hope you're having a great summer and are making the most it! :-)
