Driftwood Decor

If you haven’t noticed, Kyle and I love wood.  We particularly love scavenged wood.  We live next to a gold mine of beaches full of character-rich wood here on the North Oregon Coast.  One of our family’s favorite past-times is beach combing for driftwood.  We have used many of our fantastic finds throughout our home.  They are decorative pieces, but they are also functional pieces.  I love decorative-function in a home.  Enjoy the below photos of our household decorative-functional driftwood pieces:
