Home Sweet Home #78

Hello and welcome to Home Sweet Home!  I have been wanting to do a post on decorating with nautical accessories for summer.  So, I have a few ways here I have added the nautical/Beach look to my home.   First, it is so easy to add some shells or starfish anywhere.  It also looks great to use a map as a table runner, tacked up on the wall, or even framed.

Model ships really carry the nautical theme well.  All of my accessories are basically vacation souvenirs. 

Ticking would be the fabric I think of first for a nautical theme.  Rope in a hurricane or as a napkin tie would be great too.

Vintage beach themed travel posters are also a good bet.  This one hubs and I picked this up on our honeymoon years ago.

So there you have it...several ways to bring the nautical/beach  look home for summer.

Now, I would like to highlight some of the posts that caught my eye last week at Home Sweet Home. 

Elizabeth at Pine Cones and Acorns made this Cherry Streusel Coffee Cake that looked amazing.

Sandi at Small Town Living at It's Best  created a bench out of doors that was wonderful.

Maryjane at Storybook Cottage  went to a vintage show where one vendor had a Gypsy Wagon!  I want one!  

Terry at Forever Decorating showed off a sweet little fern stand she remodeled.

Many great links each week!  Thank you to all who join me at Home Sweet Home!   It is wonderful to have you here.
