Starfish


I have seen so many lovely blogs including starfish in either a bathroom display or on a 'beach cottage' type of table display.  I have been on the lookout for a few of these,  and sourced them locally.  Pretty soon will be buying some.
There are two reasons I like starfish.  Firstly,  they look beautiful  Secondly,  in South Africa they represent a society that looks after orphaned children suffering from aids.They therefore represent hope.


Have a fabulous Friday!!

  2. Love starfish, even though I lives miles and miles from the sea. My father would pick them up at the beach when he had the chance.
    I missed your birthday Jacqui. I hope it was wonderful.
    I loved seeing the fairy bridge. I love rock structures like those. Beautiful!!!
    hugs

  3. Hi Jacqui,
    These white starfish are so pretty...I've even seen them with glitter and hung on Christmas trees...I think they are very versitile accents. You'll have to show us how you use them to decorate your cozy little cottage. Have a wonderful weekend.

    Hugs and Kisses,

  4. Hi Jacqui,
    I did not know that. I love starfish and all different types of shells and have them all over the house!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I really appreciate your kind words.

  5. Hello Jacqui, I first want to thank you for your kind words to me concerning my Uncle Dave's passing. It means so much to me. Please know that. You are an Angel. For sure. This I do know.

    I never knew the starfish symbolizes children with Aids. I will always think of this when ever I see a starfish again.

    You are a treasure...*hugs*
