the beauty of the sea - vintage find of the week!
Not so long ago,.I stumbled across a fabulous,. very large,..glamorous clam shell at a gorgeous local vintage haven, (Frou-Frou in Springwood). It looks just like the one featured in stylist, Debra Cronin's Woollahra terrace... http://www.debracronindesign.com/Interiors.html
I use it as a whimsical ice bucket for champagne when we have guests,.. and also as a beautiful way to display seafood for parties.
last week I discovered, at a local thrift shop, the perfect 'plates' to go with it!
8 creamy scallop shells the size of entree plates!
I can just picture them delicately complimenting fresh sashimi,... or even as a contrast to a bright pink cupcake!
quite perfect,... don't you think?

:) Yes I do- delightful! You could also theme a wedding around them... large one a centrepiece on the main table, the small ones on the tables of close relatives, laden with flowers or chocolates or starfish and shells for a beach-loving couple... the possibilities are endless.
Good idea! I am thinking that a quirky high-tea would also be fun!
Go "Frou Frou"! I used to live just down the road, Jane. Loved a spot of Frou Frou when I ducked up for a coffee and a visit to the library with Luke. Great blog,love.
