Father's Day at Sucre Shop

Husbands and Dads, great ready for Guiness stout brownie pretzel bars! I am so excited to treat the men in my life to some of these! And it doesn't hurt that I can also enjoy some of this Dad's day gifting.

Of course we'll be eating them up with some of our more manly forks!
The bikes are a custom order. (You did know we do custom orders, right?)
Mustache forks are waiting for you here, and don't forget the perfect forks for the Star Wars fans: May the fork be with you!

Happy Father's Day!

June Parents Magazine Ice Cream Party

We're here, we're there, we're everywhere! Parents magazine used our scoops for toppings, ice cream spoons for kids, and full sized spoons for adults. What a party!

Outdoor Movie Night!

We're celebraing warmer weather and the end of the school year with an outdoor movie screening! For info on how to get started, visit this article on setting up your outdoor theatre.

Once you've got the technical side down, it's time for the fun part: popcorn!

We've made our own popcorn bowls using a roll of tickets. Check out our DIY to find out how we did it.

To protect the ticket bowl and make it reusable, we layered it with aluminum foil before loading it up with popcorn.

We set out a few topping: cinnamon sugar, parmasean mixed with a little garlic salt, and trail mix (candy coated sunflowers and craisins), which we're serving with our striped scoops.

Another great gift idea: give a ticket bowl, some scoops and popcorn! It doesn't get much more fun for Summer.

How To Make A Ticket Bowl

These ticket bowls are so adorable! Ticket bowls are great accessories for parties and they also make the best gifts. Best yet, you don't have to be a crafty person to make a ticket bowl, anyone can do it.

Here's how to make a ticket bowl:

You'll need to purchase rolls of tickets, which you can probably pick up locally, at Party City, or order online from http://www.funcarnival.com, which links to Carnival Mart, a local store here in St. Louis with every party item imaginable.

We made our ticket bowls by simply pushing the ticket roll into bowl form. You can gently pull up the sides, and turn the ticket roll as you're working to be sure the shape is even. The tickets are wound into a roll so tightly that the bowl will stay on it's own, no glue is needed to hold it in place!

If you're interested in gifting these, you may want to add a layer or two of modge podge to laquer it. The spray works great for this! We kept things all natural and left off the spray so we wouldn't worry about the bowls being food safe for our popcorn.

You can find toppings scoops by Sucre Shop here.

Hope you enjoyed this ticket bowl DIY and run out to make some of your own. Stay turned to find out what else we planned for our outdoor movie night!
