lazy days of summer...
I am not a big water fan. Well, ocean water, I should say. But, I love the images the beach stirs within me. I love sitting in the sand, with the breeze whipping my hair around,not a care in the world. I love iconic beach umbrellas and beach houses and oars and striped awnings.

In the meantime, here are some other pieces that I have recently given a face lift to! Enjoy!
