Driftwood Decor: 10 Easy DIYs

By

Welcome to another edition of my nautical decor series! Over the past several weeks, I’ve shared how to decorate with starfish, anchors, rope, and sailboats. And last week, I shared some pretty creative tutorials to make your own faux coral, seashells and driftwood.  Driftwood is today’s focus!
