hello again dear hearts!
it has been awhile
again.
but today,
i have sea washed treasures to share...
i have been infusing my home
with a french nordic/elegant seaside style for awhile now
and i couldn't be happier
well.
perhaps i could ~
if my cottage were actually BY the sea
but i will dwell in the possibilities:)
my dear friend Sofia, sent me a birthday package,
with nothing but treasures from the sea...
who knew a box of driftwood, shells and seaweed
could be so adored!
i ask, how you could not adore these
seashell lockets?!
they create such a romantic sea washed vignette
a lace sail driftwood boat floats atop white, sparkling sand...
in a giant shell!
they fit perfectly into my sea cottage setting...
a world of white washed loveliness,
with touches of silver, pearl and blue.
an oh-so-lovely sea stick bundle
rests on a bit of vintage silver lace...
a pretty room by day ~
or by night,
when the twinkle lights come on
and cast a soft glow on the pearl kissed walls...
if you seek a few of these sea washed treasures of your own
i invite you to stop by Sofia's etsy shop
faux coral can be found on my fireplace mantle
for a little while longer...
blue sea crystals dangle from their branches
a bit of whimsy in the land of odds...
and you remember my driftwood ladder...
i enjoy creating lovely comfort in my home:)
a place where i can whisper my name
on the things i find
Be * YOU * tiful!
next week,
i will be showing you my driftwood chandelier!!!
ahhhh yes,
greyed driftwood and lace
meets crystals and linen
LOVE IT!!

ReplyDeleteyou always have the most amazingly beautiful ideas. the shells and soft lighting are so very lovely!
ReplyDeleteWell you know I love Seawashed since it is what I named my shop! And my Sea Cottage too that I have decorated in a Nordic coastal style inspired by JDL of course! I am currently painting some vintage furniture in a grey white weathered style that I will set my mary statue from San Juan Bautista mission on. There is a calm from the sea when we bring it into our homes isn't there? I am currently painting a Nordic coastal sea series...the grey sea. Come by and see. Oxox
