The cover has a fresh, summery vibe - the living room of a Long Island summer home by the sea.
The bedroom in the same home begs for a 20-minute cat nap between swims.
The mud room of the house is all set for outdoor play, stocked wtih beach towels and flip-flops.
My favourite feature is an article on using sea-themed patterns in printing projects for summer. Above, a pink sarong is splashed with starbursts in a darker shade of rose using starfish as the stamping mechanism.
The starfish pattern is repeated here in blue on a child's white t-shirt.
Using resin and plastic fish forms, create a wall-mounted aquarium of colourful prints on rice paper.
Beautiful seashell patterns on an assortment of cool-coloured pillows and cushions lend a nautical touch to this lounge-friendly nook.
Whether you roll it up and place it in a time-worn glass bottle to be tossed into the ocean, or send them the usual route, your own personal stationery can evoke the feel of a pebbled beach by laying beach stones or shells on paper and spraying the area with watered-down paint in cool shades of blue.
