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.

My first DIY project is one that I will be doing through out the summer. Just like every girl, I am addicted to Pinterest.

I found this cute idea that would be fabulous once I have my massive closet (some day)

The stores on Nantucket are all one of a kind. I love how creative store owners get with their names. I decided that I would cut my shopping bags from previous purchases and frame them so I can always keep a piece of the nantucket shopping in what will one day be my favorite room; my closet.

Here is where I found my inspiration

I always enjoy the time, design, and creativity that stores put into their shopping bags and now I can appreciate them.
