dresser declutter

hi everyone..
hope you had a relaxing weekend.


i've been moving things around and having a bit of a declutter. 
not easy when you like to collect and create. the piles of shells and driftwood continue to accumulate, and then there's the paper and ironing piles which have been ignored for a while.. i'm sure many of you can relate to that.
i decluttered and redecorated our dresser using favourite white things, rattan baskets and a touch of aqua glass.


























thanks for visiting!


i have no idea why, but most of your comments aren't showing up here :(
has anyone else had the same problem?

this week i'm linked here

    very nice look. Yes I can so relate to the overflow of seashells and driftwood. I love to have them on hand for making gifts, embellishing packages or working on a new project. But I do have a little accumulation area in the kitchen that is not quite so tidy :) LOVE your oversized clam shells!! Did you find these? Wow ~ we've found alnost everything in our collection along the TX coast so there are some varieties we never see. Your dresser looks so pretty. LOVE blue and white xo Diane

    This is one of my favorite posts you've done indoors. I love every photo you took. The mugs and M plates are a favorite. And the little tea pot and heart. So sweet.

    Hi! I saw your post over at Debbie Doos as one of the "favs" of the week. I don't know how I missed you on Monday but I did. I'm glad Debbie re-directed us to see your blog if we had not before. I am a follower of you now. I'm not a very beach-y person but I have done a DIY coral and a DIY starfish post lately so I have been singing "Under the Sea" for a couple of weeks now.
