Large Drift Wood Wall Art -Go Collage or Abstract

If you love driftwood, why not express it in a big way with a large drift wood wall art piece!

I am so in love with this drift wood wall collage! Taryn of Design, Dining and Diapers says, "This was one of the very first pieces of handmade artwork in the cabin. My grandma’s friend collected pieces of driftwood off the beach and turned them into an intricate collage that sits above the fireplace." And there's more driftwood art in her grandparent's Whidbey Island beach cabin. Click link to see! Also, to view this even larger go to my Facebook Page. Taryn was so kind to email me a large file!

Then on Apartment Therapy I saw this bold drift wood wall art installation done with two driftwood pieces. And how about filling a non functional fireplace with shells -love that!

Beautiful too! You can create abstract wood wall art with driftwood planks. Seen at Decor Pad.

The first piece is incredible! There is something special about REAL driftwood. I have a few pieces which are filled with bits of shells...and I just saw an idea how to showcase it (where the salt-loving dog won't touch it!).

Love the first one, it would be so fun to do this as no two would ever look alike. Also, I really like that idea for a non functional fireplace, never throught of using shells with candles, how pretty! ~Lili
