August 4, 2006, Newsletter Issue #118: Create a kit of tools to help you create sandcastles that have real detail and character.

Tip of the Week

What more classic beach fun is there than building a sandcastle? Fun for young an old alike, sandcastle construction can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be. If you´re ready to try something a little more creative than upturning a sand-filled bucket, try adding these tools to your beach bag. A ruler will help you make straight lines, and a straw will enable you to blow away unwanted sand in delicate areas. Various cake decorating tools can be used to help you perfect tricky details, and a trowel - yes, the kind builders use - for big jobs. Use a dull-edged knife or spatula for precise cuts, and try a melon baller for making round-shaped cuts.
