    Sun's out, fun's out!

    1. Put your iPhone in a sandwich bag to protect it. The touchscreen will still work!

    2. Use a fitted sheet on the beach to keep sand out.

    3. Or purchase some towel anchors to make sure your towel doesn't blow around.

    4. Invest in a waterproof blanket for lounging.

    5. Create your own beach towel purse. It's perfect for transporting and use.

    6. Clean out a lotion bottle to use as a safe spot for your money, keys, etc.!

    7. Or you can put your valuables inside a rolled up diaper. People will assume it's dirty and won't go near it...for obvious reasons.

    14. Hack your e-reader to have solar charging abilities.

    15. If you are having trouble finding parking near the beach, you could save one of your old parking tickets and use it on your windshield to avoid getting a new one.

    16. And if you're looking for a new summer 'do, just squeeze some lemon juice on your hair for natural highlights. Lemon juice + the sun = natural highlights!
