As we enter the dog days of summer, I find I crave ice cream 24/7. When I came upon this article from The New York Times, my craving got even worse with the yummy-looking picture. So, while chowing down on a perfectly cold ice cream cone, I came up with these images for an ice cream inspiration board. With such bright colors in ice cream, and the kid-friendly feel, there are so many ideas ice cream can provide for clothes, parties, jewelry, decor, and more! Make sure you supplement this with a scoop of your favorite ice cream (mint chocolate chip for me please!)

This birth announcement is one of my favorite baby girl birth announcements, and as it seems elephants are everywhere lately in terms of stationery goods, nursery decor, and newborn clothing, I thought it might be cute to use this invitation as inspiration for a pink elephant baby shower. What I really love about it is the use of the bright pink and orange together–such a fun, pretty color palette! I think the elephant motif and pretty color scheme would make the perfect jumping off point for a cheerful, warm baby shower!

As a lover of all pretty things, especially when they’re hand-made, I absolutely swooned when I saw this hanging flower centerpiece from Ashley Meaders. Done in beautiful colors she can personalize to fit your event, I can see this fitting in perfectly for a wedding, baby shower, birthday party, and any stylish event. It just makes such a fun, whimsical, magical addition!

I’m pretty much obsessed with this California cutting board from Etsy shop aheirloom. This would make such a pretty edition to a wine and cheese party filled with only California-made products. I love celebrating and supporting local products (see locavore, the Oxford word of the year in 2007!) , and this is the perfect way to show it off. This would make a great gift for the foodie in your life! The shop features other states as well, so everyone can show some home state lovin’.
