Decor Inspiration: Beach Camping

The beach setup at last week’s FP Me camping trip was unreal. Our West Coast display team showed up manned and ready to transform our piece of paradise into a Free People dreamland. The van was loaded with everything from fresh flowers and drift wood to hand-dyed pillows and seashells. We had a vision, and under the hot beating sun, it was quickly crafted into reality.

We first built the driftwood teepee by stitching it together with crochet rounds and neon string. We wanted it to be a place where guests could lay & let their minds escape, so it was lined with a cloud of blankets and handmade pillows to get lost in. Surrounding the teepee was signage made of driftwood, seashell mandalas in the sand, and of course, a hand-painted surf board!

Guests dined at a long seated table made of rough planks hand-painted by our West Coast display team.  Right on site, they drilled it together atop a blanket and pillows for guests to dine. Eucalyptus, Queen Anne’s Lace, and lush yellow flowers filled mason jars lining the table’s center. Scattered between, laid bits of sea glass to reflect that glowing yellow sun.

Lastly, Free People had to put its final stamp on the setup. We claimed our reserved tiki hut with a handmade “Free People” banner. It was died in pink, stitched with sequins, and elegantly painted. The space was now ours. A land where all could laugh, make friends, and dream a dream together.

The Omani exclave Khasab Musandam is located north of the United Arab Emirates. Its wild, pristine peaks, adventurous slopes, breath-taking bays and fantastic diving spots make a trip to Musandam an unforgettable experience. It offers you an amazing day out options like snorkeling swimming, diving, day cruises, the most loved ones and a mountain safari to breath taking mountains (Jable Al Harim and Khor Najd) and much more. Here is a nice list of things to do in Khasab Musandam. http://dhowkhasabtours.com/things-to-do-in-khasab-musandam-oman/

Best place to visit in Oman is Khasab. Khasab have white creamy sandy beaches. Make your overnight trip memorable one with overnight camping in Oman. These are remote campsites only accessible by speedboats, because of that these campsites are very calm & quite.

That looks so comfortable! You don’t even need to buy any equimpent or gear like tents or canopies. Why would you when you can make everything yourself?;)
Great job! I absolutely love the look of what you did!
Keep making good content! Bookmarked.
