To be honest, this is my dream one day; to have a nautical chart covering one accent wall in my house. I found this inspiration photo at House Beautiful almost a year ago, and am still in love with the idea

I know, kind of silly. Here I sit, having been a beach comber girl all of my life, and I have not owned a pair of rubber beach boots - EVER. Until a month ago.

While perusing this months\' Coastal Living Issue, I came across their article \"3 Tasty Simple Sauces\".... hmmm... maybe we could try one of these recipes for the weekend?

Fun ideas about decorating with maps - and how to create your very own wall art out of a map of your local coastal area.

I purposely have waited until today to indulge myself... I knew that once I picked up Kristin\'s new book, Home Front, I would be consumed within the pages. Her writing and her characters, always grab me from the first paragraph when I start reading. Before I know it, I am immersed in a story that I can easily recognize as real people and real situations.

Fell in love with this outdoor veranda, overlooking a sea blue bay. Can\'t you just feel the ocean breeze with just a slight hint of chill in the salt air?

If you feel like having a nautical-themed kitchen-diner, this can be really easy to achieve. You don’t have to rip out your existing kitchen – you can re-use what you’ve got and get busy with some tins of paint to transform it.
