An Austin Texas house that's big on shells.
The shell theme of this Austin cottage is made apparent right from the start. Shells are incorporated into the stone gate. The owner claims, "I don’t think there is a surface we haven’t engaged." And all thanks to the book Shell Chic.
The front garden shell grotto. Not your ordinary garden fountain.
Shells cover the fireplace, as well as the wall beyond and the mirror.
A detailed view of the shell fireplace. The flat scallops make perfect tiles.
And another master piece, a shell covered dresser. Nothing you would expect to find in Austin. You can read the entire story about this unique Shell Chic Cottage at Traditional Home.
