5 Fun Club Ideas to Bring Your Community Together

Main

Have you ever lived in a suburban neighborhood for years without knowing or talking to anyone? It can be lonely, but there are a few ways you can bring your community together. Clubs are fun, entertaining ways for people to get together, make friends, and discuss common interests. Here are a few neighborhood club ideas for your community.

Christian Book Club

Faith in God is a bonding belief and one of the most common club ideas for bringing like-minded souls together. Within your community, begin a Christian book club, where you read and discuss the symbolism in the Bible and other Christian texts. Strengthen each other’s beliefs and get to know these new friends through God.

Children’s Arts and Crafts Club

Just for kiddos, this club idea brings together crafty, creative youngsters for DIY artworks throughout your community. They can get together and make cool stuff while making new friends that could last a lifetime. Have craft theme nights and encourage the kids to put in their creative ideas.

Men’s Conversation Club

Men need guy time in the same way a woman needs like-minded female friends. You don’t necessarily have to go full-on man cave, but a conversation club provides reason for good beer and excellent discussions. Or, better yet, instead of meeting at a bar or pub, go through rotations of backyard barbecues for just the guys. What would you talk about? Anything and everything—from your recent trip to a Brooklyn NY dentist, to your dynamic new outlook on life, or that new sitcom you love. Make conversation out of everyday topics!

Couple’s Date Night Club

This one is a community favorite because so many couples would love to have couple friends. Pick a location and have a couple’s date night, complete with good food, great conversation, and a captured smooch or two between long-time loves. It’s a great way to make friends as couples, then bond with both people as individuals.

The Everything for Everyone Club

This “club” is more a weekly or monthly dinner on rotation from one house to the next. Or, it could be a barbecue, a pot luck—anything to get together with your new friends from around the neighborhood. Any sort of interaction that brings your community together in a positive way is a good thing.

With these club ideas, you can banish the loneliness of being the newbie in a small town. Or, finally get to know your neighbors where you have been living for years. Plus, some of these club suggestions work well to get your muse going so you can come up with some get-together ideas of your own.

Getting A Cookie Bouquet Together

Main

A cookie bouquet can brighten anyone’s day. You can design them with cookies of any shape and size, decorating them with icing, sprinkles and other items that bring a 3D effect to the cookies. Create cookie bouquets for holidays, birthdays and other special occasions. There are ideas that you can come up with based on the gender of the person and a few that are age-related, such as princess crowns and teddy bears for kids or poker cards for someone older.

First, decide whether you’re going to bake cookies yourself or use cookies that you get from the store. If you bake cookies, you need to make them thick enough to stand up on a stick and to hold up to the icing that you put on them. Design the bouquet on paper or with cookie cutters and decorations on the counter before you begin baking. This will help to give an idea of what it might look like when everything is ready to assemble. Gather all of the food coloring and other supplies that you’ll need so that they are ready to use instead of looking for them right before assembling the basket. It’s sometimes best to work with a theme instead of just putting cookies together. Fun themes include items fro the beach, flowers or things that relate to a holiday, like pumpkins or Christmas trees.

Find your container before making your cookies. A basket is an option, but if you want something that will look pretty and that can be used for multiple purposes, consider a vase or a decorative mug. A block of foam should be placed in the bottom of the container as this is where you’ll put the sticks that hold the cookies. You also need a piece of plastic or cellophane that is clear. You can use colored pieces, but make sure you can see through the plastic as you want the person to see the cookies that are in the bouquet. When you bake your cookies, you want to put a lollipop stick or a small craft stick in each one so that there will be enough support when the cookies are standing in the bouquet. Once you decorate the cookies, you can start arranging them in a fun pattern before covering the bouquet to deliver.

Cheaper Holidays Than Ever

Main


If you know me in person, you know how much I like to travel. Every time the kids get some time off from school, we are off to some great destinations, some of which are local and some of which are not so local. I guess it pays off living near the airport because all we need to do is to take the airport bus that stops just around the corner and it takes us less than 20 minutes to get to the airport.

Traveling has always been my hobby. Even as a very young person I used to go to a lot more places compared to other kids around me. My parents were into traveling as well, so I guess this explains a lot. You can inherit some of the dislikes or dislikes and I am a good example of how true it can be.

I know what you might be thinking, yes it is easy to travel when you have money for it. Yes, I agree that traveling can sometimes be expensive, but it is not like that when you know how to get some good deals on holidays. Traveling out of season is an option, but if you have kids and they have to go to school and you can only travel when the kids have days off, even then it is still possible to get some great deals on travel.

If you do not have enough of holidays yet, perhaps it is time for you to revise your plans and make your reservations right now. The best way to do it, in my opinion, is to look for the best travel deals online, because only on the Internet you will be able to find some Expedia coupon codes. Whether it is beach vacation that you need, or you would rather go to a big city, there are many deals for you to choose from. In case you want to rent a car, it will not be a problem at all, as you can browse online car rental coupons as well and be able to find something that suits you very easily. The site where all those discounts can be found including travel coupon codes is groupon.com. As its name clearly says it, it contains the best coupons online. Apart from travel coupons, the site offers many other deals not related to travel, like deals on computers, jewelry, toys, office supplies and more.

4 Ways to Give Your Room the Vintage Look

Main

When you want to give your room or your whole home a makeover, the first crucial step you need to take is to find your own style. And if your style is vintage, country chic, or cottage style, you’re onto a winner. The best way to give your home an authentic vintage look is to focus on the smallest details and decorate with attention to accessories and clever colour choices. Here are some ideas for decorating with vintage style in mind.

  1. Pay Attention to the Wall Art

The things you put on your wall do not have to be antique paintings, although these are also great if you really like them. Instead, you can create your own vintage wall art by framing unusual objects and pictures, like comic book pages, old movie posters, photos that have been aged and creatively framed, or even objects that you wouldn’t normally associated with wall art. These could include vintage plates or simply a painted frame with a special object, like a shell, inside. It doesn’t need to be fancy, just something you really like to look at.

  1. Take Care with Technology

Unless you want to transform your home into a haven of vintage low-tech, you are probably going to want some gadgets in your rooms. Unfortunately the latest gadgets do tend to stand out in an otherwise vintage room. But you can blend technology by choosing old-style objects (for example an old telephone that has been cleverly adapted for use on modern lines), or by hiding technology in old-style cupboards or with screens.

  1. Use Vintage Fabrics

It’s not just art and objects that can get the vintage look. Vintage home accessories also include soft furnishings in fabrics that are both antique and vintage or simply look like it. You don’t have to do a lot of research into the specific types of fabric that were available in your preferred time period, unless you want to, and instead you can focus on choosing something that looks great and really appeals to you, which will also fit in with the overall look of the room. There’s plenty of choice out there and you can choose from bedding and cushions, blankets, curtains, and more.

  1. Be Bold and Creative

When you are decorating with vintage style there really are no limits on what you can and cannot do. The joy of decorating a vintage style home is that no two places are the same, and your decoration will be very much inspired by your own individual personality as well as the objects you have picked up and cherished over the years.
