A Summer Vignette on the Hearth

I am starting to spread some touches of summer around the house. I am using my LARGE collection of shells, placed here and there as a nod to summer. Simple changes take the hearth from Spring to summer. The birds and nests have been taken away and replaced by some shells.

 I added some shells to the lantern, inside and on top.

 The basket still has the greens ring and I replaced the nest with a starfish.

 On the pedestal is another shell, a nautilus.

 2 large shells are on each end.

 The wooden lanterns are on a remote and a timer so they come on several times each evening.

 A favorite shell on top of the lantern, which also is on a timer.

 It doesn't take a lot to take a room from one season to the next. Our weather sure is summer: 3 days of mid and high 90's!

 

Thanks for your visit. It is supposed to be a little cooler today so I hope to get to the pool for awhile. I hope you have a wonderful day!!!

XO, Pinky
