Entwined Love ..

One of the things I like to do when I am walking on the beach is to find all of the jewels that wash up on the sand.  I found this entwined kelp on my early morning walk in Southern California.  Isn't it amazing that just a gentle toss of the waves and the kelp formed this shape of a heart.  It seemed so special to me that I wanted to share it with you on this special day... 

Seashells from Cancun

As my friend Penny at "Doodles and Dreams" says when she adores an item, I "heart" seashells.
I found these little, white seashells on the beach just outside my hotel in Cancun. One early morning I gathered as many as I could. Upon returning to cold Chicago, I found beautiful jars with lids at The Container Store, I separated seashells into 3 different sizes and put into the jars.
I also put some of the sands that made it back with us to remind how warm and soft it felt under my feet everyday as I took a walk on the beach......
