Hi ChristmasOrnaments.com friends! I told Dianne about this wonderful Sandy
Beach Ornament I made and she’s so excited for me to share it with you
today!
Ornaments are not only for Christmas. I have an Aunt who lives in a beautiful

In thinking about how to thank her for her wonderful offer, my kids and I
decided to make a special ornament for her. We wanted it to add to the
beachy feeling of her cottage… an ornament that can go on her Christmas tree
come the holidays but also, an ornament that can be hung in her cottage, year
round, to remind her of our fun visit. This is the beach ornament gift we made
for Aunt Susan.

Materials for beach ornament :
Glass Globe (found at your local craft shop)

Step 1 – We rolled a piece of paper into a makeshift funnel and used it to pour
the sand into our glass globe, filling the globe about a quarter full.

carefully inserted it into the globe using tweezers, sinking the sharp end of the
stick into the sand.
Step 4 ~ Back on with globe’s top and Voila!! A gorgeous beach ornament,
with a sandy beach right there in the globe… we look at it wistfully, longing for
our beach cottage adventures to begin.
