waysideviolet - cozy, lovely things

Happy Saturday to you! I hope you’re have a wonderful day! I’m heading out to watch the England vs. US game at a local pub, should be so fun! First, I need to share a few wonderful weekend projects with you before I go. I saw this gorgeous tray d.i.y. on Poppytalk and fell in love instantly!

I want to make tons of them! Add a few candles and coasters and you’d have a lovely housewarming or hostess gift.

And if you’re looking for something to serve on your pretty new trays, Little Brown Pen’s Coconut Mango Fizz Cocktail looks so delicious! I might need to make some today:

Here’s the recipe:

1 ounce coconut rum
4 ounces mango juice
2 ounces (or as much as you want, really) seltzer

Pour into glasses and enjoy!

You might remember me talking about making curtains a few months ago in this post. I just haven’t found the perfect fabric yet. I keep seeing patterns at  Ikea that I like but I couldn’t really picture most of them on my walls. I think this print and this pattern might be so perfect!

I saw this project on Design*Sponge and thought, “that’s it!” So now I think I need to plan a little Ikea trip! I hope some of these projects inspire you! Happy weekend!
