Child’s Lemonade Stand
Posted by melissa on Jun 26, 2013 in chalk paint, painted furniture | 17 comments
I remember having lemonade stands back in the good ole days. . .
We never had lemonade in my fridge,
but there was always plenty of sweet tea.
So, my lemonade stand would turn into a “sweet tea” stand.
This would bring the neighborhood children running.
It was always hard to determine which friends would drink for free.
This privilege was usually saved for whoever my business partner was for the day.
There were usually several business partners. . .
Not leaving many paying customers.
I didn’t live on a high traffic street.
But, we would wave our signs. . .
Making us so hot,
that we would drink most of our tea.
But, on occasion,
someone would stop and place their order.
This would set the whole stand in a frenzy.
Whose turn was is to pour?!
Who would collect the money?!
Who would give the change?!
They would walk away.
We would dance around. . .
counting our money. . .
thinking about what we were going to buy with all of our profits.
If we made a dollar at the end of the day,
it was all worth it.
Those were the good ole days. . .
Life to the full!

You don’t even know how much I love this!
SIMPLY ADORABLY
Aw, how sweet…love the striped awning! And the red splatterware pitcher is divine!
I went to a lemonade stand once and lemonade was so sour.The little girls running the stand said “Mamma said we could make lemonade, but we couldn’t have any sugar!” Sweet tea at least promises sugar at this pretty stand.
This is too cute! I absolutely LOVE this!
This is SOO cute, every child’s dream:) We would love for you to share at our new Super Summer Saturday party here: http://www.thechirpingmoms.com/2013/06/super-summer-saturday.html

Wow! It’s beautiful! I wish I had the time to build my kids one like this! I’d love for you to share it on The Crafeteria’s Pinterest Feature Me! board (I already sent you an invitation)
So, so cute!! This beats the folding card table and hand written poster board sign my kids use!
That is ADORABLE, Melissa! Pinned and I’m including a link back in this week’s DIY highlights. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity. Now if a little one in my neighborhood would just sell some lemonade! I’ve missed the local fair, farm show and carnival but I do love fresh squeeze lemonade. Guess I’ll have to add some lemons to my grocery list.
Very sweet Melissa!
