Nature’s Notebook offers gorgeous photos of the beach, with a special twist! Your own name, special date, or favorite inspirational words, written in the sand! What a unique way to celebrate special moments.

We recently got a chance to see some samples. Not only did we love the idea of capturing a special moment in time (after all, writings in the sand don’t last forever), but the quality of the print was great too. With optional frames to suit all decors, they really do make a unique gift for the loved ones in your life. You can even get it printed on canvas, which we thought was a great option for art lovers. Prices vary depending on what is written in the sand, and how it is framed (you can also get just a print to frame for yourself).

Drawn to the soft sandy edges of the sea, artist Courtney Noelle has always felt inclined to inscribe words or names, thoughts or dreams into the ever-changing landscape of the beach. Something about its tumultuous fate, an uncertainty that parallels our own lives, makes sea sand the perfect tablet for expression. And what better way to capture that expression, the memory and the magic of the beach forever, than in a photograph.
