Beachy Display

I love everything about the BEACH!  I love the natural colors and textures that are associated with it.  I believe your home should reflect you and your travels. You should also have things in it that make you happy.  For me that is the Beach.  Here are some ways you can integrate your travels with your decor.

The sea sponges and the buoy are real and actually came from a beach in Florida.  All the items in the jar came from the Cayman Islands.  We went during Pirate week so it was only fitting to add a Pirate coin!  I actually dove for the sea fan, sea glass and shells.  That jar means a lot to me and just looking at it takes me back to that vacation.  

Pool House decor project

This project in Tulsa, OK was especially fun for me.  It is a relative of mine with a beautiful new home and bonus pool house.  Their family loves the beach and wanted a little piece of it with them at all times.  This brand new space needed a little warming up so with some shopping in Austin, TX., excellent packing skills (if I do say so myself), and a plane ride I was able to take care of it!  I had a blast searching for beachy stuff out of season, I love a challenge!
