Last year when we made our summer bucket list all we did was write everything down on a piece of paper and tick them off when we did them. But this year I thought we’d put a bit more effort in making our list.
So we painted some clothes pegs in lovely summery colours.
At first we just held the pegs in our hands to paint them, but we were getting paint everywhere. So we use a plastic cup. We stuck a few pegs on at a time to even out the weight so it didn’t tip up. We painted the pegs then left them to dry on the cup
We wrote all the things on the list that we wanted to do in the summer holidays on the pegs then clipped then round the edge of the bucket. And when we have done something on our list, we simply place the peg in the bucket

Lisa (mummascribbles) recently posted…My captured moment – love
every idea helps
Unusual and inspiring idea. Summer is for enjoying after all.
That’s one smart idea. x
Let the fun and sun begin – its going to be great
This is a lovely idea – could be used in so many ways – it would even make the chores seem less daunting than a conventional list. What colour would I choose for the ‘walking the dog’ peg or the ‘ check the accounts’ list?
Aww I love this idea
What a brilliant idea, love it, this is a project we will do this week, its something which can be done in the garden and will be interesting to see what they write down
Fabulous idea
What a lovely idea. A good way to spread out fun activities over the holidays!
