I Love Nautical. I Love Everything About it. I Love a Navy and White Stripe, with Touches of Red. I love The Sea, Sailboats and Rope. I Think it’s a good Summer look. And after my recent trip to the Oregon Coast I was inspired to bring That Nautical Look into my Living room.
I Layered my Mantle With Boats and Bottles and anything I could find around my house that Said “Sea” to me.
I am Super excited about my New Window frame. I did a post here about my Sisters Kitchen wall that she wanted my help decorating. She told me that she had an old window that she wanted to use, so I found her lots of inspiration pictures on Decorating with Window frames, as you may remember. Well Because she is so Sweet she gave me an extra Window frame that she had. I’m pretty sure I will paint it white eventually, but I kinda liked it wood for now.
She still needs to give us all an update of how her wall is coming along. (Hint Hint Nate’e) Oh and she also gave me the old bottles that are on my mantle as well. Love Her!
In my previous post here, I showed off the old blue drawer that is on my mantle.
This is the Other side of the Room. I love how the mantle reflects in my entry mirror.
I’m Still crazy about my Whale Pillow That I won here. I tend to carry it around the house with me and get it into every shot.
Ok, It’s now time to go pick up my Son from his very last day of Pre-School. Glad I was able to keep myself busy blogging otherwise I would probably be sitting on the couch with a box of tissues wondering where the years have gone.
Today I will be linking up Here!
I love your nautical look…your mantel looks great! I'd give anything to have a window frame, talk to your sister for me! lol!
XO,

What a pretty room – I love the coastal look.
Your mantel looks great! I love nautical, too, and all your touches are just perfect!
Time does go, doesn't it? My youngest daughter is graduating from high school Friday. I'm not happy about it.
i LOVE your mantel and i extra love the nautical theme. there are so many coastal and beachy themes out there, but i feel like nautical is more classic and sophisticated. it's gorgeous. also i do not blame you for wnting to get that whale pillow into every shot. i would do it too! : )
Beautiful room … lovely mantel !! Love all of the nautical touches and awesome layering. The window serves as such a great backdrop to it all. Love the bottles … glass float … and the whale pillow is too cute !! *Becca* (your newest follower)

Love what you did here – I especially love the idea of an old window frame . . . hmmmm
Love your nautical look. I would love to do this to the dining room this year, but it may just be a minor switch. Love the colors too!

You have such a beautiful, family home Emily!
Cuteness all round, my dear. Your sister sure is awesome to give you such cool stuff. 😉 BTW- I am still working on my wall. I want to put up some bead-board/wainscoting but that business is going to have to wait. I'll send you some pics soon.
Your mantel looks fabulous! You did such a wonderful job of layering things. I find that so difficult to do. I especially love the #3 and the starfish resting on the window. I would never think to do that. So cute!
Love, love the nautical look…, and how you layered the frames! Funny, I have a favorite nautical pillow that I also won and carry around for photo shoots!! I adore the whale.
Emily,

I like the photo of the sailboat and how you displayed it. The entire room has such a great beachy, welcoming, cottage feel to it! Love it!
Such a fun mantel and very creative. I love your pin striped pillow with the sel de mer pillow! So French.
