Canada Day Countdown Kick-Off: Pin Party

This Canada Day, I have decided to celebrate like an American on Independence Day! I am a proud Canadian, and I know how lucky we are to live in this multicultural nation of ours.

The long weekend shouldn’t just be about getting an extra day off work (although I am not complaining about that), but should be about the one day that we stop and thank our lucky stars that we were born in Canada. This week will be entirely dedicated to preparing for Canada Day and I am so excited to share the many ways I will be crafting my way through the weekend!

To kick-start the Canada Day Week festivities, I thought it would be fun to share some of my favourite pins for creative Canadian crafts, party, and decor ideas:

1. Bake and decorate the Perfect Canada Day Cake from TheKitchenMagPie.com

2. Make (or buy) a cute wreath like this one here from KMMGdesigns on Etsy

5. Spruce up your bathroom with your own festive soap like these ones from VoyageurSoapAndCandle.com

I love all of these ideas, and can’t wait to share with you a few of my own projects that I have in the hopper for this week! I’d love to hear what you have planned to celebrate on July 1st, so feel free to share links and ideas in the comments section below!
