SUMMER VIGNETTE




I'm pulling out the boxes with shells and summer decor!

Even though we are landlocked it just seems right to decorate with fun beachy elements in the summer...








It's hard to photograph the bar. The kitchen table is in the way!!! But I got a few shots of the easy breezy summer decor...



 Sea shells give my boxwood topiary a summery feel!










This little heavy urn holds some pretty shells too!












My mug rack displays starfish.













The lamp is new... Pottery Barn outlet (of course).  I like the visual weight and light it brings to the bar.







Keeping things simple and fresh is a fun way to lighten up for the summer...

    I too am landlocked, although I live in Florida, I live in the North Central area... so I am at best 1.5 hours from the water at any given time. But I bring out the shells as well. They just say summer to me. A must :-)
    Luv your vignette on the bar Yvonne.
    Happy Tuesday!!!
    Hugs, Gee

    The shells are always a great reminder of summer; the starfish are especially cute...I'm going to have to translate some of those recipes for you from the French; there are a few I think you'd really love...

    You and I think alike as I also started bringing out my 'summer' look of shells and starfish. It's such a short season and I love the seaside even though we're 1 1/2 to 2 hours away from it. We try to get to it at least once a summer. Your summer decor looks really pretty. Enjoy!
