My recent visit to Wilmington, NC brought me back to my childhood memories of weekends at the beach. Living in Fayetteville, NC during my elementary school years, my parents would take my brother and I over to the coast for little mini-vacations and we loved the white sand and family atmosphere of the Wilmington area. My lifelong friend Miriam relocated to the area and is an amazing interior designer there (follow her on Instagram @miriamcreates for her designs Coin de Joie)
