Life's a Beach~
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh... Maine was wonderful! One of our favorite places on Earth. Just wish we could have stayed longer. A lot longer.
In honor of the coast, I'm sharing this project which I admit was directly "borrowed" from one of my favorite blogs. Problem is, I didn't save the link, so I can't remember which one. If this project was on your blog, please don't be shy about letting me know so I can give you proper credit. (Edited to add: I've had two commenters who have mentioned that they saw this project at My Romantic Home. They're right! Here's the link. )
So simple, but so striking! I love the beachy feel. Just a little starfish, glued on some linen and framed up in a shabby frame. It makes me smile EVERY time I see it. And it took less than 5 minutes...seriously. Great Gift Alert...I gave one to my mother-in-law for Mother's day. She loved it too!
And remember this little beauty. My cutie-patootie niece. Hop over to my little sis' blog and check out some other darling photos of this sweetie and her uber-cute big sis taken by Holly's talented friend! They'll make you smile!

The starfish in a frame makes me smile too. Very darling.
Beautiful. I've got to try this as soon as I find just the right frame. I recently saw this done at Cindy's My Romantic Home blog. Perhaps that is where you saw it. ♥
It's a great way to have a little bit of the beach back home with you! I love the simplicity and the colors. Glad you had fun in Maine too!

The framed starfish is great. Love what I've seen of your blog so far... have a lot to catch up on!
Oh, I LOVE it!! It's perfect!
I adore the starfish in a frame. It is so cute and simple!! I am glad that you had such a great time. You needed the r&r!:)
Your blog is always so sweet. Thanks for sharing the starfish and that sweet, sweet baby.

simple and classy! It's really neat.
Love your starfish and so glad you had a great trip!
That is very cute and beachy! Jen
Wendy girl, I'm envious of your trip to the coast as I sit here in 109 degree heat. So glad you had a chance to relax and enjoy creation. As a San Diego native, I'm partial to a good beach theme (and yes, they go great anywhere!) Beautiful way to frame nature!
Gorgeous framed starfish. Your niece is adorable, too!
I just had an idea. What if you used sandpaper as the background? It would give it a little texture and color. Is that a bad idea or a good idea?!
Very pretty...did you see my Favorite Friday Blog?

This is such a great way to capture a memory. I'm thinking of any momentos I might be able to "copy" the idea with.
Wishing I was going to the beach after seeing this!
I've been thinking about doing that project as well. Looks great.
I saw that somewhere too but cannot remember. It looks great and I would LOVE to go to Maine someday! Sounds wonderful!
aren't vacations fabulous?!!
I've never been to Maine but sounds like I should go someday! I am so inspired by you, Wendy. I have "borrowed" several of your amazing ideas! Thank you so much for sharing your decorating intelligence with the rest of us!
