red, white, and blue(berries)



How fun are these watermelon star cut-outs?

They're so fast and easy to make! All you need is . . . 

a ripe watermelon
star-shaped cookie cutter
paper straws
one plastic straw
and blueberries

Slice the watermelon into 1/2-inch thick rounds, and then use cookie cutter to cut star shapes.

Tips of the trade . . .
I use the end of a plastic straw to punch a hole in the center of the stars, so that I can easily snug a blueberry in the center; 
and you can also use the plastic straw to pre-drill a hole for the paper straw. 
It works like a charm!

I'm on the hunt for a crab or lobster shaped cookie cutter.
How cute would it be to cut watermelon into the shapes of crabs & lobsters for Summer entertaining!




Happy Summer, friends!
