With the summer here and record-breaking heat sweeping across the country, staying indoors is the only option for many. But with the children out of school, it’s important to have some fun indoor activities on tap to keep them busy. Beat the heat indoors while getting the whole family involved with creative rhinestone projects. With Swarovski rhinestones and a little imagination, there are a myriad of fun and creative projects your whole family will love. Custom T’s with Rhinestones Planning for an upcoming family get-away? Playing on a summer league family softball team? Whatever the upcoming occasion, grab some blank t-shirts and get the family together to create custom designed t-shirts with rhinestones. Invite a bunch of your children’s friends over and let them each design and create their own shirts or articles of clothing. When blinging out t-shirts and other fabric items, hotfix rhinestones are the easiest to work with but require a hot applicator wand. Normal flatback rhinestones will work as well if you don’t want to buy multiple wands for everyone to work on their project at the same time.

Maybe it’s the family’s last name or a funny saying written out in a colorful array of Swarovski rhinestones—this activity is a great way to spark those creative minds into action and look great when you’re all out together. Summertime Rhinestone Bling Another fun project for the summer is to design hats to help protect you and your family from those harmful UV rays. Not everyone is a fan of wearing hats, but this all important summertime accessory becomes much more appealing to the little ones when they make it their own with unique rhinestone designs. At the same time, why not bling out some flip-flops to complete your summer ensemble. You’ll want to use flatback rhinestones when doing flip-flops, as hotfix rhinestones won’t stick. Any brand of flip-flops will work. […]
