Last weekend at
By the Sea Driftwood Company in Orleans, Massachusetts, my good friend Catherine Wissmann and I held our third annual Coastal Christmas Open House. Catherine, from By The Sea, creates amazing functional driftwood art and furniture. The combination of her art and my seaside products are a perfect match.
Her quaint studio is behind her home which is restored sea captains house. I just love this space and it looks so pretty all decorated with our things!
We will be holding our second open house the first weekend in December with more seaside goodies and coastal holiday art and decorations. Be sure to sign up on our mailing list
(right over there --->) to get a reminder of the dates and times...or check back here as I'll be posting all that info soon.
I love creating new things for this annual event. It really lets me explore new ideas and I like the opportunity to get really creative. Like the sea glass sailboat picture above (next to one of my sea glass taper candle holders).
Or this cute sea glass wreath that I just adore. I made a few of these in other color scapes...blues, greens, whites. The above is the aqua version. (PS: I'll be adding these and some other new holiday goodies to
the shop within the next few days!)
A little forest of seaside trees. What a great way to decorate a seaside home for the holidays!
Some new sea glass jewelry. These drops are about 4" long and hang from a silver neckwire.
A sea shell windchime....this really sounds pretty clanking together in the breeze.
Thanks again Catherine for the fun weekend and for the opportunity to sell at your beautiful studio. I'm really looking forward to the December one!
