How about a different kind of beach quilt? This ocean waves quilt has all of the beautiful colors of the ocean, sewn in a wave pattern. For the finishing touch, the accents like the fish pillows are highly detailed with fish and sea shells along with the same stripe patterns on the quilt and bedskirt.

Palm Tree Sandals
I admit that I have somewhat of a shoe fetish. More specifically a tropical style shoe fetish. My latest obession is palm tree sandals such as:
This super cool pair of Tsonga's hand stitched palm tree sandals.
I also love this pair of Tommy Bahama Tropical Temptation Sandals complete with a palm tree ornament.

Beach Art
I've been admiring some nice beach art from SmartBargains.com. Best of all they are all at a discounted rate. I love a good bargain! The only problem is that they are sold in limited quantities, so they sell out quickly.

Tropical Checks
It is time for me to order new checks and I always order tropical checks. Would you expect anything different? Today my choice was this set of Island Paradise Checks. I find it's actually kind of fun to pay bills when I am looking at a nice tropical scene on these checks. Plus, it helps me to cut out unnecessary purchases when I am constantly reminded to save for my next Hawaiian trip :)

My Beach Style Mantle
I think it's time that I show you some of my Hawaiian style found in my home. Today I would like to show you my beach style mantle in my basement. This mantle came unfinished in wood. We painted it white and secured it on the wall before we put the stone on. Our large screen t.v. is above the mantle.

I was just browsing the entries at the Share Your Style Contest sponsored by Benjamin Moore paints. Here are a few of my favorite beach style rooms. You can go there and vote for your favorites!
Retro Hawaiian Kitchen Towels
Lately my friend has been making cute kitchen curtains out of dish towels. I think these
retro Hawaiian kitchen towels would look fantastic made into curtains or to be hung for their original purpose. They are made of flour sack towels and add a nice vintage flair to your kitchen.

Hawaiian Living Room Inspiration
Here is a Hawaiian Living Room featured on HGTV.
I love how the designers used neutral colors as a backdrop for the walls, then they spice it up with bright colors in the accessories. That way the owners can change out the pillows and inexpensive accessories for a whole new look whenever they need a change.

Tommy Bahama Cologne
I gave my husband some Tommy Bahama cologne as a Christmas present. I absolutely love the scent and so does he! It has a nice spicy scent without being overpowering. You may want to consider this as a Father's Day present for the beach lover.

Surf Shack Tropical Bunk Bed
The ultimate splurge for a surfer kid, would be to have this surf shack tropical bunk bed. I showed this to my boys and they went crazy for it. However, at over $15,000, I'd have to win the lottery to be able to buy this for them. I'd probably keep it for myself. Oh well, a girl can dream!
Hawaiian Wall Clock
I am digging this vintage Hawaiian wall clock. I have a similar one in my Hawaiian family room. This tropical clock has a gicle art background. It measures 10 inches in diameter.
