http://crystalgrandeur.blogspot.com/2015/07/coastal-charm.html
ANCHORED TO THE PAST, BUT DISTINCTLY ORIGINAL. Thursday, 9 July 2015. Who doesn't love the sea and why do we love the sea? It has some potent power to make us think things we like to think. It is always interesting to do a coastal based table with cool colors and from gifts of the ocean. They are charming and some time therapeutic too. This is my second blue table this season which i enjoyed setting by the window. We live near the coast and i can feel the sea breeze blowing slowly. 9 July 2015 at 08:14.
