What's on my mind...

Beyond the Basics - savoring vacation

9/20/2011

Make your vacation last and last. Decorate your home with some wonderful mementos of your vacation and you will be able to revisit that amazing trip every day! Gather rocks, sand, sea glass, shells or other material and display them in re-purposed containers. You can use glass bottles, china, silver, vases, pottery, or anything that would be a beautiful vessel for your treasures.

Another creative idea is to gather items from your vacation and display them in a serving tray as a centerpiece or table adornment. Next time you travel, keep a map you used to find your way around, your airplane tickets, coins, pictures or any item that brings back a great memory of your trip.

Love this idea. I once found an old spice rack and the glass bottles and filled each one with sand from all the beaches I had visited in one summer. Interesting to see the varied colors and textures at a glance up on the wall.
