Just after the New Year, we were able to spend an
afternoon at a dear friend’s home near the beach!
A sweet child bids us “Welcome.”
Isn’t this view incredible?

She has a wonderful way of weaving her love
of the beach with her love of Christmas!
Shells are incorporated on trees and around candles…
…Even on the mantles.
A tiny Nativity is tucked among her
collection of early Creamware.
Bottle brush trees look wonderful
among the Silver Luster…
The sunlight splashes in the window…
…And washes through the room!
Santa sits on the windowsill, dreaming of Summer.
And who could have Christmas without a
bit of Retro nostaligia?
Merry Christmas at the Beach!


















Absolutely beautiful….
Thanks Kim for visiting with me and sharing the pictures. We had a wonderful afternoon with the girls!
