Creating a Vintage Coastal Display Using Beachy Collectibles

Country Cottage Charm For Beach Style Displays of Antiques and Coastal Collectibles

 What I love about the displaay this gal created at The Sandwich, Mass Flea Market is the use of a painted weathered basket to display sea shells and tins. The combination of vintage tin objects with costal collectibles makes for a very delightful cottage style look. This idea works nicely for a display in an outdoor summer Flea Market, indoor Antique booth or your beach inspired home.
