Weathered...Beautifully.

I have been lucky enough to spend the last few days at two beaches in the area, and I'm going to another one tomorrow, which has brought beachy decor to the forefront of my design mind.  :)  I love the look of a weathered, grey wood outside...inspiring memories of the beach, even if it isn't close by!  Take a look at a few beautiful examples:


love the gray pergola and wisteria

Have a great weekend!

    There's nothing like casual living on the waterfront. Beautiful images, Barbara!
