Shell Fun and Announcing The Winner Of The Magazine

Before I announce the winner of the Victoria Magazine giveaway, let me first share this fun project that I shared with my youngest son's girlfriend, the fabulous MISS K.! She was out here for two weeks - all the way from New Hampshire.
Cindy, at My Romantic Home, first shared the steps in making this super cute shell wreath...
...so I went out and bought all of the items needed to put them together. I had a few extra shells on hand, like the white star fish that I picked up on my trip to Florida in June 2008.
Now they do take several hours to make, but the time flies by quickly and are a lot of fun to put together. Just be careful not to burn yourself with the hot glue!
Miss K. used more browns and pinks and layered shells inside of other shells.
I chose more whites and beige colors with white ribbon.
A fun time shared with Miss K!
It is always a joy to meet new bloggers during giveaways!
Thank you for all who took the time to enter. I always enjoy reading each comment that is left.
The winner of the September/October 2009 Victoria Magazine is
Enjoy!

Enjoy your long weekend!
Be safe!
