A rope basket tote and an embellished straw hat are everything you need for a perfect stylish day at the beach. Scroll down to create some fashionable beach accessories for yourself for a day at the beach.
1. Woven Beach Tote
Materials: (All of these materials are from the dollar store except for the glue gun)
Nautical Rope
Oval Shaped Storage Bin
Hot Glue Gun & Glue Sticks
Twine
Spray Paint or Acrylic Paint (Not Pictured)
Start gluing rope at the bottom of the storage basket and completely wrap the rope around the basket until you reach the beginning of the handles. Follow the same process for wrapping the handles with the twine.
Tape and section-off areas for stripes of color on the tote. I used tape and a recyclable bag to secure the areas that I wanted to protect from color.
2. Floral Beach Straw Hat
Materials: (All of these materials are from the dollar store except for the glue gun)
Faux Floral Flowers
Black Puff Paint
Straw Hat
Hot Glue Gun w/ Glue Sticks
Use black puff paint to write "hello sunshine" on the brim of the hat. Tip: Make sure to shake paint fully to the top of the bottle to write text easier.
Add a mix a faux flowers to the brim after the text dries.
