Garden Window - Summer Decoration (part 2)

Hey There:

I wasn't happy with my initial summer decoration, and since it's something I'll look at for the rest of the summer, I decided to make it better.

I went to Ocean Gifts & Shells in Ocean Beach and was so lucky to get there on the final day of their "60% off everything in the store" sale. Not only did I get the shells, but also got the cute starfish in a bikini and some wall decorations for my patio.

From my previous decoration I decided to leave the sand mound since it hasn't changed shape at all and got rid of the beach ball since it kept deflating. I've had that beach towel for many years and don't use it anymore because I have better ones now, so it was perfect for the garden window.

I like this a lot more!

  1. You know, I’m amazed with the ideas you came up to do with your garden window. I’ve also seen your Memorial Day decoration, and it’s impressive! But in here, you have the summer theme. It’s cool how you’ve made the window versatile, in terms of its appearance. So what’s next?
