I’m Kim, and if you are new to my blog, welcome! I am so glad you are here, and hope you become a regular at the Charming Homes & Gardens party, and to Shiplap and Shells!
My blog is all about my home, garden and life in the PNW. I live in a beach cottage on the Puget Sound with my husband and pups, Lucy and Jax. We have spent the last 8 years, renovating, improving and adding character and charm to our 100 year-old cottage.
THIS WEEK ON SHIPLAP AND SHELLS
Hi everyone! I have come up with the perfect compromise! I have decorated for fall inside my home, and will continue to enjoy the last days of summer outside in my garden. The best of both worlds, right??? The weather is supposed to turn quite hot for us for the next few weeks. Maybe, just maybe, my tomatoes will finally ripen. Now that would be super fun! Enjoy this week’s features!
A LATE SUMMER CANDLELIGHT TABLESCAPE ON THE DECK
There’s nothing better than a late summer evening out on the deck, and a tablescape with candlelight and fresh cut flowers from the garden.
LATE SUMMER GARDEN TOUR IN THE PNW
What’s blooming in your garden right now? My Dahlias, Black-eyed Susans and Sedum Autumn Joy are the stars of the show these days. Come take a late summer garden tour with me to see what’s happening in my PNW garden.
