I love the buffet table with the shell, and the air fern spilling out onto the cloth. Absolutely beautiful. You have a wonderful gift at decorating. So clean and beautiful. Thank you for stopping by Country Wings in Phoenix. So happy you enjoyed the trip to the zoo. We take the grandkids every so often. It makes for a nice outing. I will be back to visit again.

I must correct! Dear Sherry, it's not me who did the decorating, the first two images are from House Beautiful (click images). I'm just a 48 year old girl with a passion for the coastal living life style.

Fun post to show off the many ways you can use shells in decor. When we lived on Cape Cod we often used the giant clamshells as a baking tray for baked stuffed quahogs,mmmm all the better for being baked on a shell.

Love those seashells on the tables.

There was one restaurant that we went to and they used big seashells for lavatory basins, it was just so chic I can still remember it to this day.

I was lucky enough to find one of these at a garage sale, great ideas here.

BTW St. John can be pricey but definitely the economy has hit this area as well. Still the houses are nowhere near my profesora budget but I noticed on this visit that the same properties are still for sale. I hope you enjoy my posts this week.
