Summer Weekend Grilling Crafts

Posted by Matt on June 18th, 2009 at 09:21am

This weekend is chock full of events at my household. Not only for father’s day, but my brother’s birthday is Friday. As you can imagine, that’s a lot of manly celebrations over a three-day time span. Of course, with two big events happening over a summer weekends, that only means one thing in my family: grilling. If the weather holds up, we will be spending all weekend celebrating outside.

To prepare, we have been making various grilling crafts over the past week. For the actual grilling aspect, my family and I have crafted two different types of skewers, a beaded barbeque skewer and a red, white and blue BBQ skewer. The best part about the skewers is that we can use them all summer long, and the red, white and blue skewer is perfect for our upcoming July 4th cookout.

In order to keep everything organized outside, we utilized this great outdoor organization craft from blogger Rachel Griffith. Barbecue can get really messy, especially when my father digs in to some grilled cut of meat slathered in barbecue sauce. To make sure he stays clean, we crafted him a bib and a beaded bib leash. Hopefully our celebration plans are as successful as our crafts have been so far.
