Get My Drift?

Pin It
According to Wikipedia, "Driftwood is wood that has been washed onto a shore or beach of a sea or river by the action of winds, tides, waves or man. It is a form of marine debris. In some waterfront areas, driftwood is a major nuisance. However, the driftwood provides shelter and food for birds, fish and other aquatic species as it floats in the ocean." 

For many of us living by the shore, driftwood is a staple in our decorating. I love the smooth, wind and sand-worn texture, the silvery gray color, the lightness of it.

Here are a few of the ways I've used driftwood around my own home.

Dolphin Days

Pin It
2012 is the year of the dolphin for my eight year old daughter. 
She has been obsessed with sea life since she got her first copy of "Rainbow Sea"  in preschool.
On our recent vacation to the Outerbanks, she had her ultimate wish granted when a friend took her on a "Dolphin Tour" to search for a real live dolphin!
 A week later she followed up the tour with a request for a dolphin themed slumber party for her eighth birthday.
This was the perfect opportunity to try out the "Push Pop" recipe book a friend just gifted me!

 Tiramisu Push Pops with handmade white chocolate dolphins - YUM!

A huge THANK YOU! to Uncle Scotty for turning my favorite driftwood branch
into a Push Pop holder!





Happy Birthday!!
