Coastline

This giveaway is now closed 

This is where I have spent the summers of my life.

Cape Cod.

With my toes in the sand and my face turned toward the ocean breezes.

This is where I hunted for sea glass and played hide and seek in the jetties and searched for sand dollars and crabs and little random bits of absolute nonsense that washed up on the shore.

The days were long and lazy and full of adventure.

 

And then in the blink of an eye…..without warning…..summer would be at an end.

I remember wanting to hold on to the feel of the sun and the sand and the smell of the beach when I returned to the land of sweet iced tea and “Bless your heart.”

I would fill a bag with sand and take it home…..trying to hang on to that sea glass sand dollar Cape Cod summer.

 

Cottage Coastal Store

 

I’m still trying to add a little coastal cottage to my farmhouse.

It reminds me of a simple lazy days filled with ocean breezes.

Maybe because I wish I was still digging for sand dollars.

Maybe because I wish I was still walking along the jetty.

 

Or maybe I’m still trying to bring home my bag filled with Cape Cod sand 🙂

 

Cottage Coastal Store

 

Today I don’t have a bag of sand to bring a little coastal cottage decorating to your home.

I have something so much better.

One of my incredible sponsors…..Cottage Coastal Store  is giving away a beautiful coastal cottage pillow cover.

 

 

Perfect for the upcoming Christmas season….the winner can pick their choice of a White or Oatmeal Canvas Duck. 18″ Pillow Cover.

It has the cutest grommets on the side tied with a red ribbon.

I love it.

Seriously.

And it’s so much more decorating friendly than a bag of sand.

    OOOOhhh what an AWESOME STORE! I got a bajillion gift ideas perusing the pages. But if I have to narrow it down I would snap up the surfboards pillow cover in unbleached natural with chocolate brown ink for my youngest daughter, and one of the countless incredible elephant things for my eldest daughter who collects eclectic elephant artwork! But then my little sister (my bff) owns an island lake house so, gulp there are SO MANY items for her as gifts too. And there's that Hot Coffee kitchen sign..................another gift idea. MY favorite for ME is the cream and beige coral pillow cover - it fits my neutral vanilla world beautifully, all those pretty off white and creamy beige items do! Dear Santa, I have been very very good this year.............................. Thanks, KariAnne for this opportunity and to Cottage Coastal store's generosity.

    What a great store - I grew up at my grandmothers' cottages on a lake - so I hear the call of the water too!! I just loved those little picket fishes for a kids room and the pillow cover with the green turtle - my sister loves sea turtles! And the linen tea towels - I don't know if I could pick just one!

    I don't need to be entered into the giveaway, but had to leave a comment to tell you that I envy that you used to spend every summer on Cape Cod - I'm a serious fan here - so much so that when I was looking to buy a house here in north Texas, I fell in love with a community where the homes are based on "Cape Cod" style - our teeny little part of our large community has houses with siding and large front porches, and white fences - totally different than all the other brick developments around here. Since living on Cape Cod isn't feasible at this point in my career, I'll just have to live with my own little Cape Cod right here :) Your post made me smile :)

    WOW!!! A wonderful collection of all those things I recall from summers spent combing through piles of shells for some tiny treasures to come home with me! So many pretty things and the Canvas Bags were so versatile. But, my most favorite of all was the Missing Socks Canvas Bag which would make that challenging chore of the Mystery Sock actually fun! Thanks for another great give away!

    I'm so glad you called attention to this website! There are so many great items on there. If you force me to choose a favorite right now I'd say the Everyday I Love You sign needs to come to my house....but also those Nostalgic Round Frames make my heart beat fast. :) I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this give away. Woo hoo! Off to post it on Facebook and Pinterest.

    I have three kids who are all involved in little league, travel clubs and school ball teams...that is a lot of teams, a lot of time at the ball field and a ton of pictures of kids playing ball. I love "take me out to the ballgame" wooden sign...I would make a great centerpiece for a large collage of pictures. http://cottagecoastalstore.com/detail-2248501.htm

    I would have to say my favorite is the Antiqued Wooden Angel Silhoutte although it was tough~I have a fondness for anything beach or angel! Love your story above and of course the picture of beautiful Cape Cod. I am fortunate to live only an hour from this little slice of Heaven and spent a beautiful week on Wellfleet this Summer with my family. I'm off to share this on FB! Thank you!

    Loved to read about your memories of Cape Cod. My husband and Iived in Falmouth for the first two years of our marriage. It was like an extended honeymoon! Since we're about to celebrate our 25th anniversary, I'm guessing our summers over-lapped! My favorite item in the shop is the Sugarboo pillow "When In Doubt Relax, Turn Off Your Mind and Float Downstream".

    The driftwood heart is amazing. And I adore all the signs, especially the wall sealife (crab) and the subway sign about the beach. Great shop. Have to follow on FB.
