Driftwood Ideas

One day I was looking around my house thinking

(Actually I was cleaning) and 

I noticed that, well, my decorating 

needed a little change.

As you may or may not know I 

really like driftwood.

In past blogs I have made driftwood

mirrors and a driftwood arbor.

Those things, though wonderful,

 need a lot of driftwood. 

Today I will share with you

decorating ideas that only use one or

two pieces of driftwood.

For this lovely seashell and driftwood arrangement

I started with an antique wooden tray as my base

then I placed an interesting piece of

driftwood on my tray. 

Beautiful white shells and sea life were then placed

 on and around the driftwood.

I left a space in the corner of my tray

for a glass bottle which I filled with water

an added three philodendron leafs.

This arrangement is anchored with a fiber mat.

I added a piece of driftwood into the center of

 the arrangement that is sitting on my 

diningroom table.

My arrangement was okay.

Okay or fine is not good enough for me.

 I placed a piece of driftwood in front

 of my arrangement.

This signal piece of driftwood worked as an anchored 

for my arrangement.

Much better!

I had a lot of fun putting this arrangement 

together.

 I  used things I had sitting around the house

 to tell a story on this side table.

One piece of driftwood brought the 

whole arrangement together.

All you need is one piece of driftwood

with a little character then watch 

your arrangements come to life.
