Beachy Cottage Style Box

April 17, 2011 by Amanda Formaro

Last month I stumbled across a blog called “a beach cottage, life by the sea”. The name alone makes me swoon. The peaceful sound of crashing waves, the smell of sea air and the occasional squawk of seagulls in the background are all swirling through my head. Amazing that the name of a blog can transplant me into a more serene place. 🙂 It didn’t surprise me when I found this charming box project. This was a “save from the side of the road” project. A few stencils and several splashes of whitewash later and this charming cottage style box looks like a page from a magazine. Very nice. See Sarah’s beach cottage box makeover here.
