DIY Backyard Beach

Memorial Day weekend is the perfect time to get the family together to spend the day outside. With most beaches closed, this year has a different feel to it. We’re here to help! We’ve compiled a list of everything you need to create your very own backyard beach. Kick Summer off with a weekend full of fun and new family memories!

First up, it’s time to make a sandbox aka your beach! Akilo Chic Life has a great tutorial on how to get the perfect backyard beach. We recommend lounge chairs, and an umbrella to protect from the sun. Don’t forget the sunscreen!

We love this pool noodle garland for some extra decoration. They’re super easy to make, and a great way to use those extra noodles hanging out in the shed.

Every good party needs some games! Put those beach balls to good use with this outdoor bowling DIY.

Set up a little fishing hole in the kiddie pool for the little ones! It may not be the ocean, but they’ll love seeing who can “catch” the most fish.

Don’t worry, we didn’t forget the snacks! We love this “Fish Food.” It’s essentially trail mix, but the added Swedish Fish and Goldfish give it a whole new meaning.

On the lookout for new swimwear? Head to our Swim Shop! We have the season’s trendiest swimwear for girls. The entire shop is 25% off for Memorial Day Weekend!
