My Family attended the Blogger Beach Bash at the Golden Inn in Avalon NJ hosted by Real Mom Media.  We also learned how to make sand castles from Travel Channels own Sand Master Matt.  It was amazing I learned so much and I can’t wait to play in the sand again using the techniques Matt show us.

Matt’s main Sand Carving points:

• build the structure front the bottom up and
• let the water act as a glue to hold the sand together.
• Use a form – For get the flipping of the bucket method from when you were a kids.  Matt company You can dig it Sand Tools  Has a hit and video you can buy.  It is all about using the right tools for the job.    He provided us with the kits and boy did they make the job easier.

Here is a short video of Matt teaching us how to make bricks and an aged effect.
