Can You Spruce Up Your Cornhole Boards?

When you set up your cornhole boards, it should be all about having fun. Whether you’re considering purchasing yourself a cornhole set or you want to know how to improve the set you already have, there are plenty of options. 

Cornhole boards have tons of accessories that you can use. Some of them are perfect for playing at night or for hosting gatherings and parties. 

Another great way to spruce up cornhole boards is to create a custom design for a new set of boards. Let's talk about all of the options! 

Edge Lights

The first accessory that we recommend is edge lights. You run the light strand around the edge of your board to give it a fun glow. They are easy to attach and you can choose how you put them on.

Edge lights are typically run around the edges of the frame, right at the edge - hence the name. It’s the best way to give the board edge visibility. However, some people choose to frame the edges lower on the sides of the frame. It’s totally up to you. Whatever you decide, they’re easy to install. 

Our light strands are designed to be bright without being too bright. We just want to spruce up the look and not affect your gameplay. 

The best part? You don’t have to pick a color. The lights come with a remote that allows you to change the color to whatever you want. 

Hole Lights

If you like the idea of lights, you might also want to consider hole lights for your cornhole boards. These lights are designed to outline the holes in your boards and cast a glow up through them. 

You can use both edge lights and hole lights if you want to. Hole lights are also easy to install. They go near the bottom of the hole so they don’t impede the beanbags. The lights are bright, but won’t negatively affect gameplay. 

These lights last a long time and just like the edge lights, they come with a remote so you can choose whatever color you want. These actually come in a circle that’s designed to fit a standard hole on regulation cornhole boards. 

Scorecards

Scorecards don’t necessarily spruce up your board, but they can certainly spruce up your game. We have a few options. You can choose a scorecard system that attaches directly to your boards and has magnets for scorekeeping. Or you can choose a stand scoreboard with two drink holders attached. 

Whichever you choose, it’s a great way to make keeping score easier for everyone. The scorekeepers just go from 0-21, so you could potentially use them for other games besides cornhole if you wanted to.

Custom Cornhole Bags

This seems like such a minor way to spruce up your cornhole boards, but maybe you really just need to spruce up your bags instead. There are tons of personalized cornhole bags out there to choose from and we carry a wide variety. 

If you’re looking for bags to represent a specific state, we’ve got you covered. We also have several different color options. Our bags come in a traditional corn-filled option or you can choose the all-weather bag. 

Cornhole Carry Cases

If you plan to pack your cornhole boards up or take them on the go, a carrying case is an awesome way to spruce them up. A carrying case can serve a dual purpose. You can use it to protect your boards and make it easier to travel with them. They have plenty of storage for your beanbags and accessories, too.

Your cornhole carry cases can also be customized. Just like our beanbags, you can choose from a variety of designs to go with your carry case. 

Cornhole Boards

The last way to spruce up cornhole boards is to simply design a customized set. You can keep it simple with wood staining and basic designs, or you can go all out with scenery and photos or anything else that you think up. 

Our design tool is easy to use, but you can also browse designs that have already been created and choose from those if you prefer. You will find a variety of designs and styles, so use those for inspiration or to choose something you love. 

Whether you’re looking for state or sports, law enforcement and first responders, scenic looks, Americana, or wood stained and monogrammed, we’ve got you covered. 

When it comes to customization, the options are endless. We’d love to hear about your design ideas and work with you to get your board created.
