Making Use of Sea Shells!

Seashells are fun to collect at the beach and to buy at souvenir shops but what do you do with them once you get them home? We have gathered some unique craft ideas for making use of your seaside souvenirs! The ideas are endless. One of our favorite things to do with sea shells is to make a beautiful centerpiece that can be used for the coffee table or dining table. 

The centerpiece above for example, is a very simple to put together version that incorporates a tea light, assorted shells, sand, and a glass bowl. A detailed how-to can be found here!

Another simple and fun idea is to turn your sea shells into fridge magnets for all to see! All you need for this project are some clean seashells, small magnets, and a hot glue gun. These handmade magnet also make great gifts!

Other great ideas include creating seashell candles, decorating a fish tank with seashells, and making sea shell jewelry! The possibilities are endless with seashells so have fun collecting and creating! For more information on sea shell species and where to purchase click here!

Beachwave's Top Beach Activities!

The WaveRunner Ball

 

The WaveRunner Ball is the absolutely best activity to bring to beach! Looks are very deceiving with this ball! It bounces on water! I love to use it in the ocean because you never know which way it's going to bounce against the waves. You can view more information and a video at: http://www.beachwearforless.com/waverunner-ball-p-789.html.

Body Boarding

 

Body Boarding is fun for everyone! Body Boards come in 3 main sizes to accommodate young and older riders! We love the many colorful styles available! It's also important to make sure you choose a body board that comes with a leash that can be attached to your wrist so that you'll keep your board even after a tough wipe out. We recommend any of the following: http://www.beachwearforless.com/body-boards-body-boards-c-71_72.html

Tanning

 

Ok, so tanning isn't the most exciting beach "activity" for everyone,  however for those who come to the beach with a bronzy mission, the Ostrich chair is a necessity you cannot live without! The designers of this chair have thought of everything! This chair provides the most comfortable way to tan. There is a special fold out face hole (similar to massage chairs) for when lying on the stomach, a pillow headrest for when you are on your back, a built in cup holder, and tons of positions for reclining!
