DIYer Transforms Mini Cutting Boards Into Adorable Coastal Accents for Summer
Nothing says summer quite like coastal style. It brings the easy, breezy feeling of lounging at the beach right into your home, which, as many long for the season to kick off, is basically the next best thing. And with seasonal swaps around the house slowly starting, even small touches and details can go a long way in creating the aesthetic's light and airy signature tone.
In other words, if you're looking to channel the iconic summer style in your home, that doesn't mean you have to head to the store and pick up every piece of seashell decor or light blue and white find in sight. For a cute, simple way to give your space an extra boost of coastal vibes, one DIYer just shared a craft the internet couldn't get enough of: summer-themed cutting boards.
With over 2 million views on TikTok, it's safe to say people were obsessed with DIYer Sam Camp's latest DIY. Not only is it a fun way to introduce summer style into your house, but Camp calls it a great girls night craft too.

The great thing about this DIY is that it's not just a one-and-done idea.

So, if you buy a pack of mini cutting boards, you can DIY them throughout the year to celebrate tons of occasions. As she says in her caption, "[I] love making these cute mini cutting boards for every season!"

How to DIY Summer-Inspired Cutting Board Decor
With how effortless and on-theme these cutting boards have turned out, it's no surprise they've become a go-to for Camp. All you need are the cutting boards, stencils you love, paint, brushes and twine.
Once you figure out the design you want, simply lay a stencil on the board, fill it in with paint, and add any final touches like a border, pattern, ocean design (like Camp did) or twine tied around the handle. It's the perfect craft for a relaxing afternoon that ends with such refreshing "cute and coastal" results, as one user commented. Add one to a kitchen counter, entryway table or shelf for a sure sign summer is on the way with an accent piece that's set to stand out all season.
