Nautical "Sea" Spoons...by the sea...by the sea...by the beautiful sea


Well today I was so inspired by the Starfish board that I spent sometime creating these primitive nautical spoons that I just listed on Ebay. (Thanks to Char of the pickled pepper patch for the great tutorial!) I made a set of three: a clam, a crab and a starfish. I really wanted to try a seahorse but it is such a small amount of space I was afraid it would just look like a blob. :) I think they would look really neat on some fish netting. The only thing with creating this fun seaside stuff is that it makes me want the summer sun and sand...and we have some months to go here in the northeast before that happens.

Starfish Board


I made this Starfish board after I had seen the one Sara of Sweet Magnolias had made and decided to give it a try. Still working on the netting, just took it out of the bag so it needs to work out it's creases. It is fun trying to create a prim seaside feel to the room, so different from the rest of my house!
