Free Father's Day Printable Coloring Pages
Father's Day is in a couple of weeks, friends. Who is ready?  I feel like the first few weeks of June can be a bit of a blur as we come off of that post-end-of-school craziness. But, sometimes simple is better all around. Dad would probably love nothing more than a peaceful day, a good dinner, and a thoughtful gift (or two) from his kids. There are five of these free Father's Day Coloring Sheets below.

School is (almost) out and we're all cheering for summertime (whoop, whoop!). I love the idea of a fun Summer Bucket List Printable to make a few goals for the season. There are actually four versions of this free printable available below for you. Two of them are colorable for kids to join in the fun (or grown ups!). Download your favorite Summer Bucket List Printable below.

Summer Bucket List Printable
I decided to make both family and individual versions of this bucket list. My kids actually enjoy setting their own goals for this kind of thing, so I wanted to celebrate that a bit. You can easily have each family member make their own list of summer goals, as well as put together a fun and inclusive family summer bucket list. These are awesome to keep front and center on your refrigerator to refer to all season long. Again, grab your favorite summer bucket list printable below (they're free!).

13 Free Traceable Fonts

Do your kids need a bit of handwriting practice? These Traceable Fonts are perfect for creating handwriting practice sheets, lined sheets for lettering, and even cursive practice. There is a bit of everything in these 13 free traceable fonts: cursive lettering, serif, sans serif, and even handwriting lines.

Traceable Fonts
Back in April, our state of Texas decided to bring cursive lettering back into the classrooms. My friend, Gina (she is also a Godsend here on the blog), asked if I could create some handwriting sheets as printables. She and I both have kids who have aged out of the classrooms where cursive will now be taught. But, we're taking matters into our own hands and trying to work with our kiddos to catch them up. I was slightly hesitant to create handwriting sheets for the masses since I wasn't sure I was well-versed enough in the world of elementary education to pull off legit ones. But, we've arrived at the next best thing: traceable fonts. These will enable you to create your own handwriting sheets in so many different styles. See how to do that, and download all of these traceable fonts below. 

Free Father's Day Printable Questionnaire

A few years ago, our youngest brought home the sweetest questionnaire about his parents (that's us!). It was one of my favorite things ever. I've wanted to create a more specific Father's Day Printable Questionnaire ever since. You can see my versions of this free Father's Day questionnaire below.

Father's Day Printable Questionnaire
I've seen some of these around the interwebs, but wanted one that could also be colored in, if desired. So I created today's free Father's Day Printable Questionnaire with a colorable option, as well, to kind of personalize it a bit further. But, there is a full-color one ready to go, too. This questionnaire has different versions available: both dad and stepdad options. Each list of questions will bring a smile to Dad's face.

The colors in the (already colored-in version) of this questionnaire were inspired by my husband's tie (pictured above as a prop). It's one of his faves and I love the colors in it. But, the black and white colorable printable is totally up to your kids...have them color it for dear ol' dad and he'll love the sentiment. Download this Father's Day Printable Questionnaire in one of these four design options below.

I've included more Father's Day ideas at the bottom of this post, too.

In our particular family, the grandpas go by the tried and true Grandpa name, (actually, we do have an Opa on one side). So, when I started the research for these Free Printable Father's Day Certificates, I was amazed at just how many names for grandpa there actually are. In fact, there were more names for grandpa than there were for grandma in last month's Mother's Day Certificates postI do apologize if I have left any of the names off, but I tried to cover *just about* everyone. And their Grand-père. And their Pappous. And their Big Daddy. I actually listed out each and every name featured on these Father's Day Certificates below, in the download links area.

How to Make a No-Sew Pom Pom Pillow

I love a good throw pillow...add leopard print and some pom poms and I'm truly smitten. This pom pom pillow is of the no-sew variety. And I made it so the pom poms can be changed out seasonally. See how simple it is to put together a No-Sew Pom Pom Pillow of your own below.

Pom Pom Pillow
If you saw my big master bedroom reveal last month, you know we're walking a balancing act with the colors in this space. We've got a light spa-green-like color on the walls, but little splashes of coral here and there. The thing that we broke the rules on? We did a completely different color on the walls in the newly renovated master bathroom. The walls are actually the coral in there. So, I keep trying to amp up my coral pops over in the bedroom area. This pom pom pillow with its bright coral pom poms was the perfect little accessory for our bed. And It breaks up all the white and neutral tones of our bedding perfectly. Check out my no-sew pom pom pillow tutorial below.

With summer camps starting in less than a month, I thought it was the perfect time to publish a free printable sleepaway camp packing list (in both boy and girl versions). Our sons are both looking forward to multiple overnight camps this upcoming season. It's definitely a big part of summer memory making. Download your sleepaway camp packing list below.

Sleepaway Camp Packing List
These sleepaway camp packing list freebies are seriously an essential if you're new to the world of summer camp (or are seasoned and just need a little guide to refresh your memory). Our youngest decided to go to camp last summer on his own for the first time, ever. He didn't know a soul and I was a nervous wreck. After seven days and six nights, I missed him something terrible, but he was begging to stay another week. He loved it. This year, he is attending multiple camps (including his acting camps, thanks to all of you!). But, the tried and true, wilderness-style summer camp is the one I'm chatting about today. If you're venturing into this world, these printables can be a great guide as you start to pack up your kiddo. I've also included lots of tips and tricks I learned last year (plus some from lots of my friends, too).

This post for 7 Patio Decorating Ideas on a Budget has several of my most popular upcycled patio projects all in one place. It's definitely possible to have a great-looking outdoor space on a shoestring tight-budget. It just requires a few clever DIY projects, upcycles, and thrifted goodness (and, if I'm being honest, a bit of elbow grease and heavy lifting). See all of these patio decorating ideas on a budget listed out below for you.
Patio Decorating Ideas on a Budget
We've now lived here for three years. The entire first year we lived here, we worked on the inside of the house, and barely made any progress on the exterior. But the first gathering we hosted, everyone somehow found their way to our back patio. We knew we needed to get a move on putting a nice area together, since the space itself is already pretty inviting. We did this patio on a budget, cutting costs by creating most of the pieces ourselves. See our top 7 Patio Decorating Ideas on a Budget below.

Mother's Day Coupon Ideas
When we were at my in-law's home last month, my husband pointed to something on their refrigerator and kind of chuckled. He was pointing out that a coupon his younger brother had given his mom was about to expire. The coupon was given way back in the 70s when the kids were little. It was for something along the lines of endless hugs. It was precious and sweet. And...expired in 40 years. I just adore that my mother-in-law saved it all this time, packing it up and moving it multiple times. And there it still was (nearly) 40 years later, under a magnet on the fridge. We did have to text my brother-in-law to let him know he needed to make a new coupon since this old one was on the brink of expiration. Clearly, moms love the classic Mother's Day coupon gift. Below, you'll find 100 Mother's Day Coupon Ideas to fill in the blank spots on your coupons.
