So I have this little corner in my den.
It's cute and tiny and needed a makeover.
I have a collection of beach style items that
I grouped together in hopes
to create a
Beach Cottage Corner
in my den.
I added a little table, an oar
and a couple of beachy storage boxes.
This table was originally a shabby white.
It was in my daughters room when she was
younger, she marked it up with pencil
& crayons. So to freshen it up I painted it this nice
deep tan color and now it's stylish again!
Then I added a canvas print.
And a lamp.
And a few more beachy accessories.
So here's the little corner now.
Here are a few pics with the canvas hung on the wall.
Which do you like better?
I think I like it on the wall better.
But resting on the table makes for better close up pictures.
Here are the Chip It colors.
Have a happy week!

fabulous beach corner Sarah!! looks terrific!
ReplyDeleteThat looks really nice! I love all things beachy. I'm embarrassed to say that I even buy old shells at estate sales. Lol! Thanks for having the link party today. :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I like the picture up on the wall. Great beachy colors without being overdone!
ReplyDeleteVery creative! I like the subway art hanging. Perfect vignette for a beachy feel.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteThat's a hard call. I like the grouping when the canvas is resting on the table but I like the spacing when it is on the wall. Really, my vote is on the table. Both look great and I love how you pulled it all together. Very nice! Thanks so much for sharing.

I can almost feel the sand underneath my feet. Your cute little corner really gives a warm summer feel. I like the canvas on the wall the best also, but it really is cute either way. Thanks for sharing with Share Your Cup.
