Thanks so much for featuring my shell artwork. But I love the shells used as door handles.

sealaura said...

another great post dear Maya. I have bought the nightlights from Cheryl along with a mirror and shell lights. Her work is to die for! Everything is superbly done and she is a doll.

Too many lovely things here. I need to get creative! Love Lori's and Simone's. What about you Maya, are you creative? [besides your fabulous blog creations]. Julie

Christy said...

I love the bottle toppers - so clever!

Maya@Completely Coastal said...

To answer your question Julie. Yes, I am or rather used to be creative in other ways, I've created a line of Coastal Lampshades with my photographs that I used to sell, but not anymore. I just didn't like the packing and shipping part of it and some other processes involved, so I stropped. I like the "virtual" experience much better..., no supplies to order and store, etc.

Julie@beingRUBY said...

Hi Maya.. I just took a little tour of your lampshades ... you are a clever girl!! Love the Lighthouse! Julie

Embellished Bayou said...

Thanks for featuring me Maya! Great inspiration pic's too!

Tracy said...

Hi Maya. I'm so glad you found me so that I could find you! Great things you have here and I'll definitely be back often.
I see that you're in Rhode Island. I've only been there once, for part of a day on my way to (or from?) Cape Cod. Loved Providence and plan to get back there again to see more of your state... Newport is definitely on the list... probably paired up with our next trip to Cape Cod.
Loving this coastal look a lot lately. Like I said, I'll be back! :)

Chris said...

Thanks for showing my sign , it makes me calm everytime I pass it by , I should see if it works right now I could use some calm.
