Kentucky Derby Printables
I've let this blog sit dormant for way too long, now is time to revive it! Here's a throwback post from last year's Derby .... hopefully this will get the ball rolling for some new and festive content just in time for summer!
A spring Saturday spent wearing sundresses, sipping Mint Juleps, and eating Southern food - we must be talking Derby! The Kentucky Derby is coming up on May 7th and it's one of my most favorite parties.
To get you thinking Derby, I pulled together some party printables ...

I picked up this horseshoe fabric at Hobby Lobby for a festive tablecloth. No need to sew or hem the edges, just drape it over the sides of your table.

And your Derby party can't be complete without a "watering hole." Here are a few derby cocktails from the classic mint julep to the nontraditional, infield punch.

Grab some festive table signs, food tents, and these cute little toothpick toppers for finger foods. Just print, cut the mini flags, and use double stick tape to secure around a toothpick.
