{Beach Glass} Shadow Box

Here is a project I will be adding to my gallery wall…
Every year on Mother’s Day my kids and I take a trip to Lake Michigan to search for beach glass.
We have a small collection that I love and I wanted a way to display some of it.
So I made a…Beach Glass Shadow Box.

Self Portrait

Little Miss Momma is hosting a self-portrait linky party and I thought I would join.

I usually don’t like photos of myself. I can have a ton of photos taken of me and only end up with one or two that I “kinda” like, but this is my year to celebrate myself so it’s time to get over it.

{Dreaming of the Sea} Giveaway

I don’t know about you, but here in Michigan we have had snow everyday this week.
Instead of all the snow I wish I was building sandcastles, searching for beach glass and shells, or collecting driftwood on the beach.

All that wishing inspired me to host a giveaway.
