• Piping Bags
• Large Star Icing Tip

How to decorate Campfire Cupcakes:

• First, make cupcakes using your favourite chocolate cake recipe.
• Once the cupcakes have cooled, break pretzel sticks in half and push them into the cupcakes, creating logs for the fire. Six pretzel pieces look great.
• Using a delicious buttercream icing (our recipe is at the end of this page), create three equal portions of icing.
• Add food colouring to each portion to make one red, one orange and finally, one yellow.
• Place the colours in a single line on top of a piece of saran wrap. One line per colour, side by side.
• Carefully roll the icing into a log shape.
• Place the rolled icing into a prepared pipping bag with a large star tip.
• Carefully pipe the icing onto the cupcake and pretzels. Using a circular motion, starting wide and ending in a pointed tip.

• Finally, stick the cute mini marshmallow sticks into the campfire cupcakes to complete these adorable long weekend cupcakes!!

Amazing Campfire Cupcakes

First, make cupcakes using your favourite chocolate cake recipe. We like this one from Vegan Huggs. While they are baking and cooling, let’s begin to make the fiery icing!

Using a delicious buttercream icing (our recipe is at the end of this page), create three equal portions of icing. Add food colouring to each portion to make one red, one orange and finally, one yellow. We strongly recommend using gel colouring over the liquid type. The gel will give more vibrant colours and will not change the consistency of the icing.

Place the colours in a single line on top of a piece of saran wrap. One line per colour, side by side.

Carefully roll the icing into a log shape.

Place the rolled icing into a prepared pipping bag with a large star tip.

Getting back to the cupcakes! Once the cupcakes have cooled, break pretzel sticks in half and push them into the cupcakes, creating logs for the fire. Six pretzel pieces look great.

Once the pretzel sticks are in place, carefully pipe the icing onto the cupcake. Using a circular motion, starting wide and ending in a pointed tip.

Now for the charming part! Place a mini marshmallow onto the end of a toothpick and then carefully toast them to create a roasted marshmallow look. Perfect for making tiny s’mores!

Finally, stick the cute mini marshmallow sticks into the campfire cupcakes to complete these adorable long weekend cupcakes!!

What You’ll Need:

• Green paper in light and dark colours
• Yellow paper
• Pink paper
• Scissors
• Yarn
• Glue
• Hole punch
• Flower punch

Begin by cutting an 8.5″ x 11″ piece of green paper in half and then folding those pieces in half again. Cut a heart shape out of the folded paper, cutting it out from the creased side.

On the curved edge of the folded heart, cut out four teardrop shapes. These should get gradually smaller the closer to the pointed tip.

Keep cutting out leaves until you have about two dozen and then make holes on the wide end of the leaves with a hole punch.

Repeat the first step with light green paper. This time cut a half football shape from the folded edge of the paper.

Almost finished this beautiful Tropical Party Decor!

This time, cut out five thin, sharp curves from the unfolded edge of the half football.

When all your leaves are ready, use the hole punch to make small circles in the bottom of the leaves.

Once more, follow the first step with yellow paper this time. Cut a half oval from the folded edge of the creased paper.

Using the scrapes left over from cutting out the leaves, make pineapple fronds by cutting out curved leaves.

To assemble the pineapples, attach two of the yellow ovals together. Add two more (four ovals per pineapple in total) and then glue the fronds onto the flat back of the pineapple.

Punch flowers from pink paper and either use a punch or scissors to make small yellow stems. Glue the stems in the centre of the flowers.

String the leaves, alternating light and dark, onto a piece of yarn. Add a pineapple on every four or five leaves. We made two dozen of each colour of the leaves and ten pineapples which gave us two 4′ garlands.

Lastly, glue the little pink flowers onto the leaves. Sprinkle them out at random in between the pineapples and then the garlands are complete!

What You’ll Need:

• Ice Cream Cone Template
• Plain apron
• Felt in Tan, Blue and White
• Iron on adhesive
• Embroidery thread in Brown and five other bright colours
• Iron
• Scissors
• Needle
• One pink pom pom
• Glue
• Pencil and/or marker

How to Make an Ice Cream Cone DIY Apron

Firstly, print and cut out the ice cream cone template, separating the ice cream from the cone.

Secondly, trace the cone template onto the tan felt…

And the ice cream templates onto the blue and white felt and then cut out the traced shapes.

Use the brown thread to make waffle cone lines on the tan felt. Start by marking the lines on the wrong side of the cone with a marker and then sewing lines, following the dotted pattern.

Make coloured sprinkles in the white felt by sewing small double lines in random places all over the ice cream dome.

We made 3-5 sprinkles per colour.

Trace and cut out each piece of felt from the iron-on bonding paper.

Follow the directions of the bonding paper. Usually, the first step is to iron the clear, ‘bumpy’ side of the bonding to the wrong side (the side without the embroidery) of the felt. Hold an iron (do not use steam) over the felt and press and hold until the bond has taken.

Then peel the paper backing off and lay it onto the apron. Press with the iron until bonded. Try not to rub the iron back forth too much.

Finally, glue the pom pom in place on the top of the ice cream cone.

And it’s done – ready to wear for some BBQ fun! Hosting a party to show off your new Ice Cream Cone DIY Apron? Certainly try some of these summer long weekend recipes – Strawberry Rhubarb Cocktail, the Ultimate List of Summer Dessert Ideas, and the Ultimate List of Summer Dinner Ideas.

This DIY project is perfect for long weekend crafting. Use a bright-colored acrylic craft paints, embellish with a printed template and then seal with resin to make it weatherproof. It certainly can’t get easier, what’s not to love? 

What You’ll Need:

• Wood board (we used an 8″x10″)
• Paint in five relate colours
• Paint brush
• Sign template
• Sharp craft knife
• Glue
• Cutting board
• Resin

How to make this DIY Sign for Summer Fun

Firstly, add a dab of each paint colour diagonally across the wood board.

Drag a paintbrush through each colour, blending the colours together as you move across the board.

Follow the outline of the letters with a sharp knife.

Keep going until all of the letters are removed. Keep the inside of the P and R .

Flip the cut template over and cover thoroughly with a paper glue.

Centre the template over the board and then smooth it down. Use glue to attach the inside of the P and R in place.

Mix resin using the directions on the package.

Set the board on a baking tray covered in tin foil and raise up on an old bowl, ribbon spool, or any other item that will hold the board flat and can be discarded. Make sure the board is level.

Pour the resin over the DIY sign.

Spread the resin with a plastic knife, the resin is self-leveling so it should fill in any gaps as you go. Set aside in a dust free spot for 24 hours to fully cure.

As the resin dries, occasionally check on it and then pop any bubbles that may appear with a toothpick.

We hope you have fun getting creative with our Sip, Grill, Chill – DIY Sign for Summer Fun! If you’re still looking for some summer crafts check out our stylish Ice Cream Apron or our fabulous Flip Flop Hanger.
