18 Simple DIY Ways To Make Your Next Trip To The Beach Even Better
Beachy keen.
1. Add pockets to your towel to keep track of all your things
2. Go all in with this padded towel roll up
Sewing instructions here, lounging instructions should be pretty straightforward.
3. And then use a bag of sand to keep your towel in place
4. Or sew up a stay-put beach blanket
Sew shoe lace loops to each corner of a flat sheet and hold them down with simple tent stakes!
5. A fitted sheet propped up with bags will also help keep more sand out of your space
6. Freeze aloe into cubes for super cool sunburn relief
7. Sprinkle on some baby powder to easily wipe away sand
8. Frozen water bottles work as ice in the cooler, and as a cold drink when they melt
9. Or make icy water balloons and have a fight once they thaw
10. Store valuables in a peanut butter container when you're near the water
11. Or wrap them up in a (clean) diaper
Because no one is going to unwrap that.
12. Flip your steering wheel when you park, so it won't be SO HOT from the sun when you leave
13. Make a kiddie pool with a cheap, buried shower liner
14. Or bring an inflatable one with you
15. Be safe and throw your phone in a ziploc
Bonus: you can still use the touch screen (including the fingerprint reader) through the bag!
16. Give yourself a sun tattoo with a little Elmer's glue
17. Make an 'adult Capri Sun' with vodka and lemonade in a Ziploc bag
18. Lay your flip-flops facedown so when you put them on they won't be scalding hot
