About it

πŸ–οΈ **Holiday beach crafting meets VAY-CAY vibes! Sun, Seashells and Sisterhood** πŸŽ„ **WHAT WE'RE MAKING** Beautiful coastal Christmas trees made from beach finds! Check out the inspiration photos - we'll create our own 12"x 4" versions using shells, starfish, and beach treasures. **THE VIBE** We'll paint our 12x4" canvases first (go light with the paint so it dries fast in the sunshine!) then while the canvases are drying, we'll beach comb for shells, driftwood, and other beach treasures for our art pieces. **Location:** Englewood Beach Meeting spot: See map in pictures. **COST:** $5 (bring $5 to cover the cost of supplies & your canvas) **WHAT'S INCLUDED/SUPPLIED BY MAUREEN:** Paint, Paintbrushes, Glue Guns, Clear Glue, Canvases Some starter shells, Sea Glass, and a starfish topper from my collection **WHAT TO BRING** Optional: Small decorative items (rhinestones, pearls, mini ornaments, sea glass, etc.) πŸͺ‘ Beach chair or towel β˜‚οΈ Umbrella if you want shade 🧴 Sunscreen (Florida sun is no joke!) πŸ’§ Water bottle Super casual, zero pressure, bring whatever skill level you have (including zero!). Some of us will make Pinterest-worthy creations, others will make gloriously imperfect beach art - all welcome! WEATHER BACKUP We're there clouds or sun! If it's rainy, we’ll craft under the pavilion on the picnic tables. RSVP Please RSVP so I know how many canvases to buy! Questions? Message me! Can't wait to get crafty with you all! 🐚 ✨ FINDING US See map in photos - Look for the group of women with beach chairs & Maureen's blue umbrella. Enter parking lot circle, turn left, pass porta potties on right, park there. That's where the split in the fence is. We gather straight out from that split, down by the water. See you Wednesday, Paradise Gal Pals! πŸŒŠβ˜€οΈπŸŒ΄
