hanging memories

Another little project that is in the works was inspired by the decor in Millie and Grace, a quaint boutique right off of main street.


I loved the idea of memories hung by string and little clothes pins. This would be perfect to decorate a bare wall. What's also great is that it is something I can move around, and the postcards are interchangeable.

I went to Parchment, the only stationary store on the island, and picked up some adorable postcards. The focus of the project is Nantucket, of course.

This past week my friends were on Nantucket to celebrate the fourth of July. Although I had to work, I still had so much fun with them.

My favorite night was Thursday night. It had been about a month since I last saw Andrew, and we decided that Thursday night would be our day/night to have some alone time.


Somewhere along the way we both went in different directions, and we finally had some time to just sit and talk. We went to The Galley Beach, which is a restaurant right passed Jetties. People are not lying when they say you pay for the view, but it is well worth it.


Andrew and I sat right on the beach with a glass of champagne in hand. I was so happy in that moment. We always order crab cakes where ever we go, and this time wasn't any different. Let me just say it was one of the best crab cakes I have ever had. And of course we ordered the french fries, which were also delicious.


The best part of my night though was when I presented with my favorite colored box, Tiffany&co blue. I opened the box to a beautiful necklace that spoke volumes to what my future with Andrew holds. I was taken back by the meaning the necklace held for Andrew and his feelings towards me. It was the perfect way to end such an amazing week with my friends.
