pool party

Designer: Susan Weinroth

I bought this beach bucket with shovel at the Target $1 spot and then quickly transformed it into a snack bin (with shovel scooper!) which will be fun to use at my next summertime pool party.  It’s a super-easy way to jazz up an inexpensive purchase, and create a crafty addition for your next party!
