Show and Tell Friday

I made my first trip to the ocean as a 22 year old mother of one.  I immediately fell in love.  The ocean is a feast for all the senses; the feel of sand squishing between your toes, the smell of the sea, the sound of the waves crashing against the shore,  the taste of the salty sea air, and of course the beautiful view that has no end.   Since then, I've made three more trips to ocean, collecting seashells each time.   When we redid our half bath, I decided it was a perfect place to display my shells...and be like having a little bit of the beach right here at home.
Here is my collection of seashells displayed in a bowl (a leftover decoration from my wedding), with several more on the shelf.   The starfish is my husbands from when he was a child.
Some more shells (they are hard to sea) and a fish my sister brought me back from Jamaica.


My daily reminder of God's amazing handiwork.   And I can't wait to visit the seaside again.  (And, thankfully, I don't have to wait long....next week we're spending 5 days at Myrtle Beach with my IL's).

shells,etc

Love the wall paper. I live about 20 minutes from the beach and hardly go because of crowds and traffic!! But it is still beautiful.

What a wonderful collection from the seaside! I still have a huge conch shell that my parents had brought back with them when they went to Florida in 1965:-) PEA

I love shells. I used to live near the Gulf of Mexico and missed it when we moved away. We got to go visit Charleston a few years ago and I fell in love with the water all over again. What a neat way to display those treasured reminders!
