Creations, Christmas in July Life’s A Beach Tree
While putting away 4th of July things,
I decided to redecorate my little tree
At first I thought I would turn it into a mermaid tree,
but as I started looking around, I got a different idea
For a little Christmas in July
I decorated my tree with all kinds of funky, fishy, finds!
Mermaids yes, but lots of other beachy things…
A starfish garland, wooden fish and painted crab clothespins
Why not a fish switch plate cover and multiple stars
Big fish, small fish, floats, and a boat
Coconuts, flip flops
Crabs…
The crazier the better, big or small
Polka dots, paper umbrellas and sparkly things
A needlepoint door hanger and VW beach buses
Paper umbrellas
Even a blue wave margarita glass!
This was a ton of fun,
napkin rings, decorative objects and unexpected things turned into ornaments
Here’s another similar creation
A lantern centerpiece from Hot Pink Fun in the Summertime tablescape
A lantern is filled with painted sticks, funky flowers, and a beach chair
So shake things up a bit and have some fun,
Shop your house and see what crazy thing you can create!
All these things I’ve had for a while, gifts and collectibles over the years
The Pineapple pillow is available in my Society 6 Shop here and is available as a print or on lots of other items too
There are even holiday versions!
Holiday Pineapple throw pillow
Merry Holidays in July!

Jenna, this is fun and playful! I packed up my patriotic things this past week, and now I’m slowly adding other summer colors. The heat has arrived so soft greens, blues, and corals are my choice of color. Your newly decorated tree is filled with whimsy, just as summer days should be!

I love the little beach tree you decorate and change on a whim. Love the beachy theme. Great blue wave margarita glass and love the red beach chair. Definitely a fun project………..
Thanks Emily, the idea just sort of came out of nowhere and I love the way it turned out! It’s fun to have many of my favorite accessories put to a new use!
That is crazy cute and so adorably styled with abandon!
Styled with abandon, yes that’s a perfect description, thanks Rita!
Jenna, I love that fabulous, fun, festive, funky tree! It is perfect for the summer holidays! Hugs!
Thank you, it really turned out cute, I was delighted!
I know your family enjoys your festive tree decorated for the seasons Jenna! It would keep me from feeling so ‘crabby’ in this heat and humidity, along with a margarita in your blue wave glass! 😉
