One Fish Two Fish....

I have been doing some fishing lately...but not the normal kind with bait and hook. 
The words to the Dr.Suess Book ..."One fish.. Two fish... red fish blue fish... always come to mind when ever I see fish.
It has been years since I read it but I remember it word for word.
 Remember the last house that got moved on Tybee Island



Well here is a progress report....
I  decided it need a bit of personality so a fish picket was the answer. The Catskill Builders are the greatest and were ready  willing and able to make my plan come true.
What do you think?



just getting started .. this color is a sherwin williams color SEA NYMPH sw1743
it has a green blue/less blue green...nice color for a house located on an island between a bit of navy  to the right and light green to the left.



I cant do the outside without pondering the inside....



A little shabby fishy bedroom fun...and speaking of fun....We always have fun while we work..
happy carpenter

Love, love, love those fish pillows. Any idea where I can find them online or the fabric? I also love the fish fencing stairway. It makes me wish I had a place for a fence!

Jane,
You make me dream in cottage! I loved the fish pickets and showed them to my hubby and he too thought they were brilliant. I see fish and wood chips in our future!

Love that railing! So cute. Also love the headboard and the fish pillows. Makes me want a seaside cottage myself. Maybe someday!

I Love adding some fun accents to projects. I try not to duplicate anything exactly so they are all one of a kind with their own personalities
