All the ornaments are so beautiful.
I'm wondering where you find beach-inspired ornaments? On line? I would think they'd be pretty hard to find.
KYgirl ~ yours caught my eye as I have the exact one dated 2008 and 2009. Wish I could've kept the collection going but it wasn't meant to be in 2010. Anyways, I keep mine out all year. I have a wrought iron wall thing in my bedroom so they hang on there until it's time to move them to the Christmas tree.

The ornaments are sooo adorable. It is too bad we can't exchange them all in person at the Beach Bar. Now that would be a cool Christmas!

I got one of Diane's ornaments last year from my Elf. I love it.
The past two years I haven't been able to get down there, so I get them online. Being from Michigan I usually get them from Bronner's, but this year I gotit from a different place. I keep checking here to see if my elf has received it yet...

You guys have all done great! The ornaments are gorgeous this year. Every time I hang up my previous exchange ornaments they make me smile. Hopefully next year life will be calmer and I can participate again!

Brenda, I got some really nice tropical ornaments at Pier 1 and also World Market. Might check them out if one's near you.

I got my ornament today but there is nothing with it to say who gave it to me! So, who was my secret santa? I will post a picture when I get home.

I am so glad you love it. I have been waiting for you to post it so I wouldn't ruin the surprise. I ordered it online, but they didn't give me the option to put a gift message with it. So I figured I'd just wait until you said you had it and then I would come clean as your Secret Santa!
I will tell my roommate it was a hit. I made her look at about 27,000 beach-themed ornaments to help me pick!
