A Coastal Mantel + Summer Projects

Fourth of July weekend is here! Are you celebrating it with family and friends?

I'm excited about it because we plan to spend the day in Washington, D.C., having a picnic while waiting for the fireworks. It's been more than a decade since we last made this same plan, and now that we have family in town, it will be full of unforgettable memories.

Now that summer is here, a trip to the beach is also on the plans, but when the time arrives, we can bring the beach inside our house! Ha, at least we can pretend. ;)

Today, as part of the Home & Décor Encore series, I'm sharing a coastal summer mantel full of sea shells and coastal décor. As usual, my blogging friends also share some of the best summer projects from their archives. Check them out below!

Big thanks to Doreen at Hymns & Verses & Lori at The Stonybrook House for organizing this group.
