Bring a bit of sun, surf, and sand into your home with these easy DIY beachy accents, plus a table setting to show them off! Perfect for your next summer cookout!
Here's the quick how-to:
Step 1: Tie a knot at the end of your string and hot glue it to the styrofoam ball.
Step 2: Tightly wind the string around the ball, gluing as you go to secure the string.
Step 3. Wrap, wrap, wrap.
See? So easy!
I don’t even think this one needs a step by step breakdown. All you’re doing is gluing your stones onto the styrofoam ball, one by one, until you’ve covered the whole ball.
Now that you’ve made the “stars” of the show, it’s time to get that table setting put together!
All I did for this was look around my house for anything beachy that I could come up with. Sea shells, a blue table runner (you could even use a Pashmina scarf!), woven balls, jars or glass vases, etc. Maybe even a book or two with a blue or gray spine that would fit in your color scheme.
Just add place settings and you’re good to go! Oh, and don’t forget the FOOD!!! There you have it- a beachy tablescape to liven up any summer party.
