40 Sweet Seanovations
From Seaside Style to Sea Monster Yachts:
Meghan Young — Oct 9, 2009 — Art & Design
Ever since I was a little girl watching ‘The Little Mermaid,’ I have had this unsinkable fixation with the sea. I guess it’s ironic considering Ariel had a similar infatuation with land. The sea seems like such a strange and magical world that it’s no wonder that others find themselves just as fixated. Here is a cluster of some sweet seanovations that will rock your boat.
