Artist Shari Curtiss is a self-proclaimed beach girl and shore lover who went from owning a corporate gift company to creating beautiful accessories for the home with seashells and seaglass. Her business Beach Grass Cottage, an Etsy Store and Website, is a dream come true for her, and she is offering you the chance to win a $40.00 Gift Certificate that you can spend any way you want at her Etsy Store! Also, if you are a store owner and love Shari's work, she's doing wholesale and drop ship as well. So take a look at some of her fabulous seashell and seaglass creations.
Beautiful hand embellished Picture Frames that are made of weathered wood and beadboard. The gorgeous frame to the left has sold, so you might want to check Shari's Etsy store often for new and one of a kind additions, such as this Barnacle Frame that she just completed.
More beauty; seaglass adorned frames in different colors, and designs in woven grass-like materials.
Elegant Mirrors that are truly pieces of art and create a great focal point.
Then Shari's newest Seaglass creations. Accent vases that she first rolls in beach glass in all sorts of beautiful hues, then fills in all the cracks by hand. And wonderful sparkly candle holders.
And you also find a selection of absolutely stunning Wreaths. From dune grass to flower designs, I think they're show stoppers.
Very awesome and trendy letters, made of solid wood, encrusted with layers of tiny shells; perfect for a mantle, ledge or bookshelves.
A lovely starfish garland that you can hang anywhere you want a beachy vibe.
And lastly, you also find a few other (non shell or seaglass related) items such as these awesome wooden buoys.

HI Maya
I love the shell encrusted BEACH sign.. it's definitely the winner for me!! The starfish on rope would be my second choice. although all her creations are just lovely...
Have a great day.. I'll pop over to Shari's blog on my way out..!! xx Julie
I would use the credit toward those solid wood buoys and perhaps the starfish strung on rope!
Beautiful frames! I really love the dozen White Finger Starfish :)
What a great giveaway! If I won, I'd buy the White Beadboard Beach Shell Picture Frame with Sand Dollars and Pearls.
Wow - hard to decide! I think the shark eye seashell frame, but I also love the wreaths with sandollars.
btw I found your blog from It's The Little Things that Make a Home blog :)
Love it - added it to my list of blogs to visit frequently!
I love alot of the frames, or I might just spend it on a lot of the clearance items that caught my eye!
I'm a sucker for the shell mirrors. I've always wanted one!
I'm lovin' the star fish garland!
he4rken(at)yahoo(dot)com
Are you kidding Maya? You want me to pick just ONE item?!? She has so many beautiful items! I think if I won, I would use it as credit toward the Sea Glass Mirror with Sand Dollars, Shells, and Starfish - Aqua, which would look perfect in my guest bathroom.

I would love to use a gift to Maya's store toward purchasing her sea glass letters!!

I posted about it on my sidebar with a link back to you.

I'm a sucker for a cute wreath. Thats probably what I would have to pick.
I would love one of her wreaths, or the Nantucket baskets. I also really like the individual starfish--especially the finger starfish.
Love the Beach Grass Cottage store - beautiful items! I like the frames with the shells, starfish and sand dollars - white or aqua would do just fine!!
I love sea glass so I would probably buy the sea glass frame and look for other sea glass items. Although, all of her things are so beachy and lovely!! Great Giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity!
Wow, beautiful creations. I would have to use the credit toward one of her wreaths. They are gorgeous!
Hard to choose, but would likely be a wreath or two, the starfish garland, some picture frames... Love it all!
While looking for anything warm and beach-like to get my mind off Nebraska cold and snow, I found your blog. Now I am toasty all over! I love the sea glass! Anything with the sea glass! Thanks for taking me away with dreams of a sandy beach!
My favorite are the buoys, we are moving to South Carolina in a little over 4 months and they would be great to decorate with!
Super cool :)
I love the picture frames!
Is it fate that my name is Shari too? Hmmm...I would love the starfish frame or any of the mirrors. Heck, it's all gorgeous!! Thanks!
those wooden buoys FOR SURE! I would give them to my inlaws to hang on the umberella outside at their cabin in bear lake that is "BEACH front" they would be perfect.

Oh my goodness, how to choose....it's so hard. I love it all! Maybe the beach glass vase or frame or both...ha
Hard choice! I would pick between the gorgeous starfish mirror and the fabulous sea glass vase. So pretty!!
I like it all! I really like this mirror:

I love almost everything she does, but I especially love the starfish garland, the wooden buoys, and the wooden picture frames adorned with shells!
Wonderful shop! I LOVE everything beachy as you know!

I adore everything in her shop...the sea glass vases are really cute!

Lovely things in her Etsy shop! Please don't enter me in this fab giveaway, you know I have a bazillion shells and I want someone else to enjoy something beachy in their home.
However, when I went to post it in my sidebar, the image that came up was for the OB giveaway.
I would like one of everything in her shop, but if I had to choose, it would have to be one of those lovely seaglass vases.
Rhonda
Added the button to my side bar.
Thanks!
The Beach letters with tiny sea shells is absolutely beautiful!! What a way to brighten your spirits when I am looking out the window to 2-3 feet of SNOW! and more coming down! (Yuck!) Take me away =)

Aloha wishes from across the sea

Such extraordinarily lovely items! I, too, create with shells & sealife, and always appreciate the talents of others. I would be a very happy woman, indeed, should I be lucky enough to win one of Shari's gorgeous wreaths.
Beauty! I'd put the certificate towards the seagrass and shells wreath. Might just get it anyway!! ;-D
This is SO my kind of stuff. I would go for the seaglass frame or vase first and gradually add everything above! I love this, can't wait to explore the store.
Sue
How do I decide, super cute stuff! I would buy the bouys, I have some shelves to fill and these would look fabulous. I really like the starfish wreath too, I have been on a hunt for one of these for a while now ;)
ok, I would pick the buoys (LOVE THOSE) or some sea glass, or the starfish garland (how fun is that!)
Wow, I love all of it. It's lovely. I would probably by some sea glass to make a project of my own, or one of her lovely picture frames.
I LOVE the starfish garland!
I would buy the beach letters!!!! Super cute...
I like the adarondak (sp?) chair ornaments. Cute. I also like some of the frames. Really nice. A little pricey though. Thanks for the chance.
Jessica
I put your button on my blog about the giveaway. Thank you again for the chance.
Jessica
Oh I love her stuff. I think Id love to have one of the wreaths since I just moved to a beach town on the Oregon coast. It would be perfect. :)
I'd love a buoy and one of those wreaths!
My daughter lives by the beach and loves the starfish picture frames!! We love this store!
I love the picture frames. They are beautiful. I have a wreath that I want to do this too with the seashell.
Love your goodies like I love the beach! I am thinking about redoing our guest room in beachyness. This would help start the collection!
I've had the buoys on my esty wishlist for months, so that would be my first choice. However, I LOVE the seaglass vases! Don't worry, if i win, I'll be able to narrow it down.
I love her work. My favorite is the starfish garland, it would look great in my coastal guest room!
Beach Grass Cottage is a regular stop for me, and I'd love to add the Starfish Garland or the oh-so-charming Herb Garden Silk Flower Floral Arrangement (from the clearance section no less) to my beach themed bedroom and/or home office. You've had me goin coastal for some time now ... and I've loved every minute of it!
I am in LOVE with this wreath: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=36471112 Sand Dollars and pretty blue flowers! I am re-decorating my bedroom, in a Key West Beach Cottage style and I have the perfect spot for this!! Also, you wouldn't have to ship it, I live in Battle Creek, I could pick it up, and bring you coffee! LOL!!!
I would have a very hard time choosing it all is so wonderful. The buoys or the mirror or the frames or the garland with the starfish okay enough already
Maya, Of course I will enter and would love to have one of the wreaths...I will post the notice of the giveaway on my blog this very moment.
Surely lightening could strike twice and I could win again.
I just blogged about the giveaway as well here:
http://swanwhitecurtain.blogspot.com/2010/02/coastal-giveaway.html
Oh. My. She has some GORGEOUS stuff! I love the frames and wreaths, but I think my absolute favorites are the word beach covered in shells and the sea glass pendants that look like boats. Love that!
Beautiful! I love the starfish on a rope! I came over from Olivia's. Thanks for the chance to win.

I'm sitting at the table looking out my window at 2' of snow and can't think of anywhere I'd rather be than at the beach! All of the pieces are beautiful, but I especially love the starfish mirror!

Only ONE favorite? I love so many items from your store.
The white finger starfish are my favorite. The strand, the frame, the mirror, the group of 12.
Oh, and I love the buoys too!
neweveryam@gmail.com
I would choose the lake and beach shell wreath or one of the sea glass picture frames (as I can't part with the frame I just purchased with the starfish, seashells & pearls.
This is one of my very favorite etsy shops.
I absolutely love the Seashell Mirror made with White Coastal Finger Starfish, but I think if I were to win I would purchase the Shell Picture Frame with White Finger Starfish and Sand Dollars, 8x10 aqua. I love the starfish detail and the beach worn aqua color shining through the background. I really enjoy all of Shari's stuff. Thanks for sharing!
I couldn't help but add Shari's starfish mirror to my list of beachy accessories on my blog post today. I added the details for the Giveaway as well. I recently started my blog, as I've started a business, reimagining furniture and home accent pieces. Check it out! http://abodesigns.blogspot.com/
Wow, what a wonderful giveaway, thank you! I love the sea glass, I could come up with a million ideas for them!
I love the Beach and the beautiful sea, rain or shine!!!! I would love to own any of the items you make but if I have to pick one it would be the All white Sea Shell Beach frame
w/starfish, shells and Sand 5X7 or Sand Dollar Shell Magnets set of 6.
I loved everything I saw on your Etsy site,
Lila

Oh, pretty! I'd want the Sea Glass Wreath.
I would love to have the picture frame that is "Sold" above and the garland of starfish onthe rope!! I'd also get a bag of white fingered star fish to put in a vase near my bathtub or on my nightstand.
