It’s tricky to lay out and trickier to router. But I’m digging the result. These pieces A selection of creations from this past weekend’s beach gathering. Our theme was to connect to a powerful experience with nature and then express that on the sand. Thank you to everyone who came out, participated, and made space for this shar
