Raise your hand if you love watermelon. 🖐

If you ask our family, watermelon is the best summer fruit out there.

I grew up hearing stories of my Dad asking for watermelon instead of birthday cake, and when I was pregnant with my oldest, it wasn’t uncommon to find me with a large bowl of watermelon during those last few weeks in the August heat.

Even my toddler loves watermelon so much that he gets angry when we run out. 🤣

Watermelon Art Prints

Which is why I thought it was the perfect time to create a whole set of watermelon art prints to share with you.

These fun DIY printables are perfect for…

  • Kitchen Decor,
  • Summer mantles,
  • Homemade cards,
  • Last minute party decor,
  • and more!

4 Different Sizes Included

Each of the designs comes with four different print sizes.

  • 4”x6”
  • 5”x7”
  • 8”x10”
  • 16”x20”

5 Reasons to Love Watermelon

Now, obviously our family doesn’t need convincing. But we do know some people who insist that they think watermelon is overrated. 😱

So if you ever find anyone making that argument with you, here are some reasons to love this summer fruit.

1. It’s a Great way to Stay Hydrated

It’s so important to stay hydrated when it’s hot outside. And since watermelon flesh is over 90% water, it’s a delicious way to stay hydrated.

This is especially helpful with little kids – who seem to fight us tooth and nail over drinking plain old water.

2. It Doubles as Creative Party Decor

Now, as evidenced above, I’m not the best at carving watermelons. But sometimes the fun is just in the trying, right?

So, grab your big knife, and turn that watermelon into a work of art.

3. Watermelon is low in calories.

Remember that high water content? Because of that, it’s only 40 calories per cup, which makes it the perfect way to combat a sugar craving.

4. It’s also a good source of nutrients

Watermelon is high in:

  • Vitamin C which is great for your skin and for your immune system
  • Potassium, which helps with blood pressure and cardiovascular health
  • Lycopene, which is a powerful phytonutrient and antioxidant.

5. It’s Just Plain Pretty

The bright pink flesh, and green rind are opposite each other on the color wheel, which makes them a perfect match.

It also means that any drinks or snacks you make from watermelon will definitely look fantastic.

      So far this year we have bought 2 watermelons and both of them went bad way too soon. At least your printables will stay fresh.
