on the sea shore




I collected the shells for these pots over the summer. I love limpet shells - ordinary but beautiful - and they look like little shields, don't you think?

I had long discussions with the lovely staff at my local hardware store about how to stick the shells on. I used Selleys All Fix, as they recommended, but maybe Mod Podge would work too.

Reading: Inside a pearl: my years in Paris by Edmund White. This is a memoir. In 1983 Edmund White left New York for a year in Paris and ended up living there for fifteen years.

Watching: The stranger - 1946, Orson Welles film. Thrilling.

Any good movies/books in your life lately?
