Sunburn Cubes
For this project, you will need aloe vera gel and a silicone ice cube tray. Squeeze the gel into the tray until full and freeze. For anybody with a sunburn, they will love these!
Water Balloon Ice
Whenever you throw parties, you always want cold drinks. To make this DIY, fill water balloons like normal but freeze them until solid. Instead of using an ice chest with ice cubes, throw some drinks and frozen water balloons into a cute container and you have an adorable drink holder.
Make Lemonade
Lemonade is a staple in summer, especcially with a mason jar cup. But, I can't be the only one who gets bored of the lemon flavor. Now, you can go and buy different kinds but it's so much funner to make your own. I would love to post a recipe of each and every flavor, but everybody likes different things. You can google "DIY _____ Lemonade" and you will get millions of recipes.
Movie Night
Bring the movie theater to the comfort of your room. This is great for you alone or take it a step farther and invite the squad. Pop some popcorn and bring the junk food! If you want some good TV shows or Movies... check these out!

Keep in mind most of these are teen girl movies because that's what I know best. If you don't like those movies, there are bunches more.
Glamping
Everybody used to go camping but now that's not "cool". As a kid, I loved camping but now am a girly teen. Instead of hiking to the middle of nowhere and sleeping in the cold, go glamping! This is really fun to do with your best friends. Set up a tent in your backyard, add sleeping bags or blankets, and add some fairy lights. Everybody will have fun and be able to take some Insta-worthy pics.
Try a New Style
Summer is the time when nobody you know sees you, except if you live in a microscopic town like I do. Take advantage of this, try a crazy hairstyle or a glam makeup look. I personally love expressing my personal style but never have time to do it during the school year.
Make a Smoothie
These are so simple but taste amazing and are great for you! Blend your favorite juice with fruit- pineapple, strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, raspberries, whatever. If you freeze your fruit or buy frozen fruit you don't have to add ice!!
Grow a Pineapple
Okay, I technically haven't done this but have seen it all over the internet. So if you try this... comment down below if it actually works. Basically, you cut off the top of a pineapple and plant it in the ground and it should grow into a new pineapple's top. Seems like it would work, but then again I don't know plants.
Dance Party
Find your favorite jams and blast them! Have a bunch of people over and just jam out to the music. Spotify has tons of choices and is a free app!!
Road Trip
This is one that could get expensive depending on where you go or how long you stay but can be short and sweet. If you can legally drive, grab a friend and a map and just drive somewhere. You can have a picnic, fly kites, go to a theme park, you do you. I've always had this crazy idea to go to Disney World with my squad during our Senior year so... that's always an option.
Decorate
This can be as simple as decorate a phone case or your whole room. I seem to decorate on my dresser and bookshelf quite a bit. I have posted quite a few DIY ideas and YouTube has a lot too.
I hope that you love this ideas as much as I do! I will definitely be posting more summer things to do because I have a whole summer ahead!
Hearts!
