Ya’ll make life at the beach look fabulous!
There is so much talent out there and I am so honored you came here to show off!!!

Our guest judge, Sarah from The Era of Sarah, had the most difficult job picking the winners. I think she did a great job!
Sarah had the hard task of selecting the winners, so let’s see how she did. Here is what she said about her judging experience.
I liked being a CSI judge because it was such a great way for me to expand my horizons, I discovered so many new DIYs that I will be trying soon, and so many new and creative blogs that I am looking forward to following, it was an honor 🙂
And the winners are…….Drum roll Please!
Judge’s comments in BOLD!

This is the perfect way of making your christmas tree more personal! I love the idea of collecting sand from places you’ve been! I love christmas, so this caught my attention right away, I’m so doing this for christmas this year!

This is such a great way to keep a home looking fresh, and it looks like someone would really but effort into changing up their place seasonly. I LOVE IT!
I love this one because it’s a simple, and inexpensive way of making a themed room, it seems perfect for a little “getaway” in your home and looks great, really gives a beachy vibe and completes the theme!
This is such a cute little gift for your kids who have been begging you to take them to the beach! its like bringing the beach to them, and they take it everywhere they go! so creative!
THIS IS SO CUTE! it’s a perfect centerpiece for the living room table, and perfect for the season!
this is a perfect thoughtful gift you could give to someone with just adding a picture of you and that person in it. and its homemade and creative, makes it more special than store bought.
I liked this one because it’s an easy way for anybody to make their home/room/space a little memorable by the beach. especially if they don’t live anywhere close to it, it will remind you of it anywhere you are!
I love the idea of an start of summer themed dinner party, its so creative and looks like so much fun to set up!
This looks like a great runner to keep at your beach house, anytime you come back its ready for you to feel like you’re on vacation!
This is such a cute and simple way to decorate, and so personal. It looks great for decoration anywhere!
