~Seashells and Jasmine~

We have collected shells from all our vacations.
There are so many different ones.
They bring back so many memories.
 Some are so detailed.
The coral hearts are my favorite...
We have a Madagascar Jasmine or also called Stephanotis. It has white flowers when it's in bloom and smells so sweet.
It's growing on the side of the house. 
Florists use this flower in bouquets for weddings.
 When the window is open it smells like heaven. It's definitely a plant you must have...

  2. Love how you put the shells together to form a heart. And the stephanotis - it's only a houseplant here in the north. Can't imagine how wonderful it would smell outside in the warm. Gorgeous with it's glossy green leaves and stark white flowers.

  7. I tried to collect shells on our recent trip to a beach in Sri Lanka but there weren't many to be found. I know that Jasmine smells wonderful. Right now it is too hot over here for much to survive. Have a great week. Tammy
