I'm so excited to be celebrating 300 Followers to my blog. I know that does not sound like a lot, but for me...it really is a nice little milestone. So today, I thought I'd offer a nice little giveaway that combines two of my favorite things: Coastal Home Decor and Seashells.
This little blog has brought me so much pleasure...I travel for a living and before I discovered blogging, I used to get so frustrated by delays at the airport - but now, I happily pass away my time catching up on my favorite blogs and writing posts for Love of the Sea. This is such a wonderful little hobby in that I get to use the creative side of my brain...since I spend my days working with financials and numbers...this is a much cherished escape.
So part 1 of the giveaway is a little piece I love...actually I love it so much that I bought one for myself too...a Zondax red coral sculpture. What's nice about this is that it is resin (I think) so if you don't like it in red, all you have to do is paint it the color your want.
The second part of the giveaway is an array for shells that I have collected over the years from various beaches on the Gulf Coast and in Mexico. I have also included in a couple pieces of coral, a starfish and a sand dollar. I thought this little collection would be perfect in a wooden bowl or dish.
So in order to qualify, all you have to do is be a follower of Love of the Sea and leave a comment on this post. And if you post about this on your blog, you will get two chances to win. I will draw the winner by random.org on Friday, July 1st.

These beautiful shells would look gorgeous in any room. And the red coral sculpture gives that splash of color that most people, including me need! The shells are so different than what I can find up here on the Cape. Congrats on reaching that milestone with your blog. You deserve it!

Wow, congrats Debbie! That is awesome! Love your blog! The red coral is beautiful! And I don't see how you will be able to give up your beautiful seashell collection. It's wonderful!
I don't suppose it would do any good to try to bribe you...would it? I know I shouldn't even enter but OH how I would love to have the gorgeous red coral and the shells are exquisite! We are in NC now and I don't have any shells here! HOW could that be? Thanks for the fun and for always having such wonderful posts! I've enjoyed each and every one! KUDOS to you, my friend! ♥

300 Followers is a BIG deal! I am so happy for you!!! I understand what you mean about blogging filling the gap when you travel...or work from home. It opens the window to so many wonderful people. (And YOU are one of them!)
Congratulations!!!

Yay Debbie - 300 followers! But girl, if you are giving shells away that means you need to restock. Is see the 10 spot on the horizon.
Take good care,

I am a follower of your blog and visit nearly daily. I love the sea also and just returned home from another visit there....funny...I would LOVe to win the sea shells...I am collecting to make my own shell mirror.....these would be perfect and lovely. Thanks so much for the inspiration......
Love the Coral, and all your coastal inspiration!
Oh YAY!!! I'm working on a shell mirror right now with shells I picked up at Sanibel Island a few months ago but I don't have enough!!!!! The coral would be perfect too!!! Pick me Pick me!! and congrats on so many followers and a happy happy blog!!
Congrats on having 300 followers. I'm trying to make it to 200! That red coral would look awesome on my front porch, and I need some shells for my dough tray. I packed up the shells when I was getting ready to decorate for Christmas, and now I cannot find my shells to decorate for summer. I am already a follower of yours.
I just found your blog and I love it!!!! I started surfing for shell decor ideas today and it would be soooo nice to win either of your giveaways. I have very recently decided if I can't live near the ocean I would like to bring it to me.
Thanks for sharing.
