A parade of boats is a common sight
from our back porch, day or night…
Southern sea breezes make it nice to dine
and we linger here most all the time
Seahorses, starfish and a beachy bottle with glass
Are part of the view as we watch the boats pass
Lots of sparkle in the summer sun
A sand dollar bottle, just for fun
Napkins tied with shells and twine
And shell covered forks and goblets for wine
Coconuts fill up the boat
With more large shells and a blue glass float
Our friend Freddy the blue heron, loves the porch too
Do you think he likes the view too?
But if we come outside, he’ll fly off into the blue…
I hope you have a breezy day!
Juicy Details
All table accessories are things I’ve had a while but here are there sources
chargers, boat/Hobby Lobby
shell plates/Christmas Tree shop
seahorse runner/TJMaxx
starfish plates/Home Goods
sherbets/Pioneer Woman collection, Walmart
Easy shell napkin rings are made with chevron stamped wide burlap ribbon tied with twine with a shell glued on
This is also a great way to decorate a jar, like these summer party favors
