25 of the Best Beachy Christmas Crafts

It’s Christmastime, but you’re in a beach town! Or maybe you simply have a beach-themed house wherever you are. No matter the reason, beachy Christmas crafts are a wonderful way to be festive in December!

Making Beach-Themed Christmas Crafts

Sometimes people think it is hard to mix beach with Christmas. While we have both the beach and the snow in our part of Canada, we know there are people all over that may not connect the beach with Christmastime. It’s hard to imagine a warm Christmas or a Christmas without snow! Yet there are so many fun Christmas crafts that take beachy elements and combine them with this wonderful time of year.

Try the list below and let us know which is your favorite! Want to receive a ton of inspiration and money saving ideas for decorating, gift-giving and crafting? Join HERE!
