Late summer has a magic all its own. The days are still golden and warm, yet you can feel the gentle shift as the evenings cool and the first whispers of fall begin to arrive. For me, this season is about slowing down, gathering memories, and soaking up every ounce of sunshine before the school year and cozy autumn routines take center stage. That’s exactly the feeling behind our Late Summer Mood Board — a little love letter to road trips, bike rides, ice cream dates, and those lingering twilight evenings that remind us how sweet these simple moments can be.  

The Joy of Late Summer

Late summer isn’t about rushing or doing more. It’s about pausing. It’s about:  

  • Bike rides that feel endless on warm afternoons. 
  • Cool drinks clinking with ice while you laugh with friends. 
  • Dreamy road trips that spark nostalgia for college days and youthful adventures. 
  • Getting excited for back to school, or just college day dreaming with our new mascot stickers, as well as our journals, and playful details that bring a touch of joy to everyday items. 

This season invites us to capture those in-between moments — the ones that stay with us long after the days grow shorter.  

Creating Little Moments of Joy

At KenmoreRd, we believe joy comes from both big adventures and small, everyday rituals. That’s why our designs — from playful stickers to bright journals — are made to spark smiles, stir memories, and inspire you to add a little personal magic to your day. Whether you’re decorating your water bottle for late-summer adventures, journaling your road trip stories, or tucking a sticker into a postcard for a friend, our pieces are here to make the ordinary feel just a little more extraordinary.  

Let’s Carry This Feeling Forward

Summer may be winding down, but the joy it brings doesn’t have to fade. Take a moment to savor the small treats that make you smile — an ice cream stop, a sunset bike ride, or a playful sticker that reminds you of your favorite adventure.
