#1 – DIY Drink Pouches

I am in love with these DIY Drink Pouches!

This set of 100 reusable pouches comes with 100 straws. The pouches hold about 17-ounces of liquid – just enough for a fun pool party or backyard patio party. They can hold hot or cold drinks – I love using them for frozen adult beverages. 😉

Simply fill the pouch with whatever you’d like (margarita’s by the pool, anyone?) and seal shut. Place the filled pouches in the freezer for an hour or so, and you have an awesome slushy beverage! Pack up a bunch of pouches in a cooler and you have something cold to serve guests all day long.

Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream, fill with root beer, and freeze for an hour. Instant root beer floats for the firepit! So many possibilities for Summer beverages – be creative!

#2 – Picnic Tote Bag

This simple, and affordable, picnic tote bag is just what you need for Summer!

Just fill this bag with your favorite food and beverages before heading to the pool or beach. Also makes a great lunch tote for a day cruising the lakes.

When not having a picnic, keep the tote bag in your vehicle and use it for your groceries – makes carrying them inside so much easier!

The black and white gingham design has a classic look. The lid has a zipper to hold everything securely inside. Just wipe with a damp cloth after using. So versatile!Black White Gingham Picnic Tote Bag


#3 – Fairy Berries

These Fairy Berries just make you smile!

I can think of so many clever uses for these small LED lights!

For example, next time you’re having a gathering, pop a handful of these fairy berry lights inside a cooler of ice. Your guests will be surprised when they reach for a cold beverage and see the ice cubes lit up! This is especially fun for patio and pool parties.

The lights are small enough that they can also be inserted into balloons to light up the balloon – fun for birthday celebrations.

I like to scatter a bunch of these lights on our patio coffee table for interesting lighting effects at night.

To turn the lights on, just remove the small plastic piece from each light. To turn the lights off, insert the plastic back into the light – easy peasy!

What ideas do you have for using these fairy berry lights?

You can find product links to all three things on Pinterest at Things I Like and you can find some of these things in my Amazon Marketplace Storefront.


NOTE: Since my job is an online store and mentoring ecommerce business owners, I spend a LOT of time online each day. While most of that time is spent working, I do occasionally stumble across websites, articles, and cool things that I really like. I save these things to a Pinterest board, so someday when I have some free time, I can go back to that board and enjoy the things I found. I enjoy sharing these fun finds with you, and hope you find them interesting, too!
