Beach products I love . . .

While vacationing in Duck NC, our beach house was decorated with charming prints by artist Sandy Gingras.  Her effortless line drawings and happy bright colors are perfect for decorating a coastal home or any room that needs a little reminder of the beach. 
 
 Her whimsical artwork can be found at:  http://how-to-live.com/index.html

 
One of my favorite posters is "How to Live on an Island"
 
 
Dance on edge . . . stretch . . . listen in on shells . . . put living things back . . . cultivate quiet . . . boogie. . . practice simplicity . . . sugar yourself with sand . . . float . . .  carry a bucket . . . ride rusty bikes . . .go with the wind . . . walk tender . . . tune up your senses . . . build castles . . .and leave them for the moon to find . . .run with waves . . . discover treasure . . . remember yourself . . . keep off the rocks . . . ebb and flow . . . laugh like a gull . . . thank your lucky stars!

    1. Me too! The old adage "Do what you love, love what you do" comes to mind. A fun way to make a living - drawing things that you love.
