Hi. I am a new follower from Social Parade. You have some cool ideas. Have a great weekend!
These are all great ideas! We spend a week at the Oregon coast each year and bring home stuff for the house every time. I'll be using some of your projects for sure! Very clever.
Happy Friday! I'm following you via the Social Parade blog-hop!
I just got back from Italy with some fun jewelry~ I smile when I put them on.
That is a friday's favorite!

I love your ideas of saving the sand from vacations. So great to see how many color variations there are to sand!

My daughter is always collecting rocks from places we go – I like the rock idea. 🙂
I also like to collect Christmas tree ornaments from trips. I have a few from my honeymoon that I enjoy putting on the tree every year.
Something about the dirt in jars trips my trigger…also like the rocks with words on them…
Love your travel ideas. Thanks for sharing : )
I have a huge collection of rocks written on with sharpie of where I collected – I need an idea of how to display, they are just sitting in a box! Ideas on that?
