Sailboats and Suitcases

I've managed to get most of my summer decor out, all I have left to do is dig out my collection of shells.  In one corner,  I''ve used an old  white door from the flea market as the back drop for my stack of suitcases and some of my favorite things that say "Beach" to me!  The best part is that they are all thrifty finds!
I got the 2 books, Prairie Style and Waterside Cottages off the Internet at less then they would have been at the book store,  does that count as a thrifty find, I sure think so!  I love the aqua color of the book jackets!

Till next time.....

Using that old door as a backdrop is a fabulous idea. The whole scene looks like a magazine page and makes me want to pack a bag and head to the beach.....oh how I wish. Love it!
