Back from our winter break at the Whitsunday's in tropical North Queensland. A week of lovely sunshine, clear waters and plenty of time (and yet, not enough time) to catch up with good friends.
A few treasures from the beach are up on display. I am putting together a little beach inspired colour post, as I could not stop taking pictures of driftwood, shells, white sand and sun-bleached coral.
This bowl of shells is a work in progress, we keep adding to it with each beach side holiday. I have filled another jar with the more tiny shells.
Some new driftwood meant the treasure shelf needed a redo. I am loving the washed out timber next to the crystal and black wrought iron.
More of that beach colour. Can you see the hem of my wool jersey maxi dress I made for the holiday?
Back soon with some holiday knitting and beach inspired colour way.

Such gorgeous finds! And I especially love your writing in the sand. Must have been a wonderful trip but also lovely to be home in your own bed...and arranging all those bits of loveliness. Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week :)
ReplyDeleteLove the final sand shot... especially the gentle footprints at the bottom. Really glad you guys had a restful break. Hi to you all from Mauritius, Kristan. (Oh, and tell the Mr to email me sometime :)
ReplyDeleteI love the beach in Winter. It's usually quiet, rugged and beautiful. So nice to bring a little piece of it back home. I did a shell display on my blog about a week back too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Trace! You make me long for the beach. Glad you enjoyed your time away. :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome back. Glad you got to spend some quality time with the major. He's quite a man.
