Happy Friday, friends! Welcome to the end of another week, and another day of new and noteworthy products! All week, we’ve been celebrating fathers here on the blog, and today our friends at Simple Stories are sharing a new collection with us that we think would be perfect for documenting or gifting dad! Let’s take a look at this outdoorsy new line of products: Trail Mix!
Summer is the time to get outside and be adventurous! Our new Trail Mix collection will be your go-to for this year’s backyard campfires, s’mores-making celebrations, and mountain-seeking fun! It’s filled with the most fun icons, traditional woodsy vibes, campground necessities and big pops of color that really make it unique!
Take a peek at some of the amazing things our own design team has been busy creating with Trail Mix! It’s such a fun collection for your everyday outdoor fun or into the deepest parts of the forest! Whichever you prefer—camping or glamping, you’ll need this collection!
Team member Becki Adams created this adorable layout featuring so many of the amazing patterns and pieces this collection has to offer!
Team member Tara Chausse created this cool tent display! Not only is it a unique decor piece, but it’s also filled inside with all the space and details for documenting your memories!
And last, our team member, Karlla Dauer created another fun layout using a mix of patterned papers from the Trail Mix line to form fun pennants, just like at any campground! With so many trendy colors, designs and icons you can’t go wrong with this collection!
Before we wrap up with a chance to win some of our Trail Mix collection, here are a few sneak peeks of some of the fun pieces in the line—plaid backpack, friendship bracelets and a bag of trail mix? Nothing beats these adorable icons!
We’re pretty sure you won’t want to leave this one behind this summer! So get out there, create memories and keep those trails alive for years to come! Here’s a chance for one lucky winner to get summer started off right and be among the first to get their hands on this collection!
