Ready for a long weekend? This time it’s a three-day break—extra time to relax, create, and try a few fun projects. Between naps and a little leisurely sipping, here are six DIY ideas you can tackle over the extended weekend.
- Free hand-lettered printable from The Crafted Life — a simple way to add stylish, handmade typography to your home decor.
- Unique DIY pendant lights — transform ordinary lighting into a standout feature with a creative pendant project.
- Felt palm leaf pillows from A Beautiful Mess — craft soft, tropical-inspired throw pillows using felt leaves for a fresh, modern look.
- Eyeball drink stirrers from The House That Lars Built — a playful, spooky accent for cocktails and party drinks.
- Boozy poached pears drizzled with honey and pistachios — an indulgent, elegant dessert that’s quick enough for a weekend treat.
- DIY ombre abacus from Lovely Indeed — a charming, colorful project that doubles as decor and a playful accessory for a child’s room.
Even though it’s a three-day weekend, I’ll still be sharing a new ice cream recipe on Monday—so check back then for that sweet addition. In the meantime, enjoy the long weekend, try a DIY (or two), and have fun recharging.
