Backyard Hot Dog Roast Get Together

Now that we have a fun backyard to use for playing in and for entertaining, I’ve been wanting to pull out our fire pit and have a Backyard Hot Dog Roast Get Together. Well, because I like to craft and make things that are cute, I decided to put some fun decorations together for it, and I’m sharing them here with you today.

Backyard Hot Dog Roast Get Together Supplies:

Once I had all my designs picked out in Cricut Design Space (have you tried the new one, it’s AMAZING!) I started cutting everything out.

On the invitation, I used the Draw & Cut feature on the Cricut Explore Air 2.

Then I cut out my Craft Foam. I made the quick change to the Deep Cut Blade. Changing the blade is quick and easy.

I attached my ketchup and mustard to the invitations with a little bit of adhesive on the back, and it was done.

The dimension that the craft foam adds is so fun!

Then I decided that I wanted to make a cute banner for the hot dog roast. So I found several images in Design Space and got them all cut out. I used a glue stick to adhere them all together.

I used dimensional adhesive to attache them to the banner shapes.

Once I had all the shapes attached to the banner shapes, I got my ribbon ready.

I strung all the banner pieces onto the ribbon, and I was almost ready for my Backyard Hot Dog Roast Get Together!

Here are what all the banner shapes look like when it was hanging.

Isn’t it such a fun banner. After I got it done, I even thought it would be cute just to have hanging in the house for summer decor.

The last thing I did was add a little bit of vinyl to these little buckets. I found these at Hobby Lobby and thought they’d be cute for holding silverware.

So I added a little vinyl decal to the front of each of them.

I got all of my cute decorations made and put up and I was ready!

I think one of my favorite things about this is that hot dogs are easy. A little get together like this doesn’t need to be complicated. You could even ask the guests to bring a side dish to share.

I added some 2-liters of soda to a bucket of ice to make the drinks be easy.

I also had this bucket on hand, and I think it makes the perfect holder for our roasting sticks! I used a galvanized tray for the plates and cups, and put the silverware in front of it.
