shell week continues

browsing through blog archives this morning, i stumbled on linda rodin's home, featured on so haute.  the shell obsession continues -- look at her perfectly quirky curated displays of shells.  what an easy way to start a collection with things you love and are fun to search for.  i believe everyone should have their own cabinet full of curiosities.

i always have to stalk over whenever i see anything beachy in your title, since i hope for snippets of wrightsville/wilmywood! i went to school there and yearn for images of familiarity when you go! keep em comin!

Before jumping into this trend, need to consider how often you have to dust.

Love love shells and beach motifs in general. I can't wait to see what comes to the store!

I have always loved the image of the bathroom with the shallow shelving holding the shells.

Wonderful collection of photos!
