  Hi Lizette! The listing is back up. I guess I thought it was seasonal, but I will leave it year round now. 🙂

Your 4th of July is cute! Could you tell me where you got the red & white striped pitcher? Love it!

  Hi Trish. Lisa will have to answer that for you. I remember her pulling it from her mother’s stash and she may be able to find out the source.

  Hi Trish,
  I borrowed the pitcher from my mom, but I found the same one on Amazon: Terramoto Ceramic Stripes 9-1/2-Inch Large Pitcher, 3-Quart. It comes in multiple colors.

These items are so festive and fabulous! Can I ask what font is used for the food/beverage labels, please? I’m hosting an old fashioned Ice Cream Social at my workplace next week and need to make labels on the buffet for the different ice cream and topping flavors. Would you mind sharing what font it is, please? Something I can find on dafont.com perhaps?
Thanks!

  Thanks Donna. I used a free font called “the dead saloon” downloaded from dafont.com. Ice cream social! Fun!!

        Hi, Lia —
        Thanks for the tip re: fontsquirrel.com. I hadn’t heard of that site. I just had a chance to check it out and they do have great fonts too!
        Appreciate the additional resource. Thanks!

Thank you for the kind words, Lia! I hope this party inspires others to celebrate in style! With just a little extra time and a few basic supplies, any simple occasion can look beautiful and personalized.

I can taste that caramel corn now! Mmmmm! The recipe is by Annie’s Eats and works perfectly every time. For the 4th, I may set out mix-ins like candy, pretzels, and melted chocolate or peanut butter sauce so guests can create their own custom caramel corn mix. A perfect portable treat for watching the fireworks! 🙂
