sea washed treasures...

 
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!!

  6. Well 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
