Coral - its Perfect


When I blogged about my
medical cabinet, I mentioned a large piece
of coral would look perfect on top.
A Big piece -
all by itself.


Now just imagine my De - lighted

surprise

the next time we went to

Monticello Anique Marketplace

and my friend ,
Joyce ,
had this beautiful piece of coral for me.
From her personal collection....
how awesome is that?
It is so beautiful - just as I imagined.
Thank you , sweet friend!!

Joe hung my
Chicago Bridge and Iron Co
sign above the sofa
I love it!!
The living room is slowly coming together - I'll keep you posted!

I am a lover of coral myself! Theresa Cano had a big piece and wouldn't sell it to me, but someone else got it! ARGH! But she is still my friend!

I am so glad you were able to get that awesome piece of coral for your cabinet. It looks perfect on it! I also love the sign you hung above your sofa...being that I am from Chicago! ;-D

Hey Sue,
Just wanted to stop by and say hi! Your cabinet is amazing and perfect in your sweet home. I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner about the corks, maybe you found some, but I have some you can have if you want them. Found a bunch at an estate sale. Let me know!

Hugs,

Lisa

You couldn't have picked anything prettier from the bottom of the ocean if you tried. It's gorgeous and perfect. Love the plateau mirror you've placed it on as well.

P.S. Were your ears burning a couple of weeks ago? Willow Nest, The Flying Bee and I were talking about you at Winnie & Tulula's. Nothing but good things my friend...pinky swear!

What could possibly be better than a beautiful piece of coral? Being on the beach at sunset and finding it in it's natural environment. I miss Maui!
