Yesterday afternoon, I was out walking along the seafront with my dog & daughter. We were looking at the repaired beach huts & walkway which took a terrific battering in the storms last year . I wondered if the substantial repairs will hold this winter.
We hopped down onto the beach to see what the waves had thrown up and I found this lovely piece of wood. The corners have been softened by being in the sea.
I wondered what it had been attached to in its former life.
I may use it for my new rubber stamps which are not stuck to a block of wood, or I may stamp a picture on to it.
Either way, I'm very pleased with my beach combing find !
Ooh by the way....all you lovely crafty bloggers. Is it easy to buy from Etsy ? I see such lovely things but a lot of them are in the US

ReplyDeleteyes it's lovely Tracey and I am lucky. 'im out of doors is a sailor & runs a business out of a local marina so we have to be near the sea !!!
ReplyDeleteI was down there just now & tomorrow will take my camera as the sea weed is looking fantastic at the moment
Oh I adore beach combing and I really regret that we are now living further from the sea than is possible in the UK! Great find. I bought via Etsy from my friend Juanita in Switzerland, and found it very easy.
ReplyDeleteYes I want lots of sea pictures please! XXX
ReplyDeleteYes, it is easy to buy from Etsy and Folksy too... but you probably oughtn't to cos it could be very addictive!!
