It all starts so innocently. Lazy walks on the beach, with or without the kids, somehow turn into the epic search for the perfect seashell or piece of sea glass. Before you know it, you’re sunburned and you’ve filled a plastic cup with the fruits of your labor. A few days later, it’s time to pack for the trip home, and you make the call. They’re going home with you as a nice memory of those glorious beach days.
Unfortunately, these treasures usually wind up reminding you that you don’t have a clue what to do with a cupful of shells, and you begin to question why it is that you can’t bring yourself to throw them in the trash. As if that would mean you wanted to forget about the trip all together.
This scenario, not unlike so many “Free” souvenirs we acquire (ie. concert tickets, drink coasters, etc.) plays out time and again for those who just want to hang onto a lasting memory of a fun time.
Our solution is a simple one – Frame them!
…And why not include a photo or two to “time-stamp” it!
It will make for a great conversation piece, and will be there to always remind you of a wonderful time.
So have a look through that top drawer soon, and drop by the Gallery to pick our brains about what can be done with your Vacation Treasures. You’ll be glad you did when the cold days of Winter leave you wondering what it was like to be warm!
