Kelli at http://kellishouse.blogspot.com/ does a show and tell Friday--go there to register and others can view your show and tell!!
The above pics are memory makers--these are murals my oldest son did for me in our house. The little bird and nest are over a door in the dining room. The lighthouse--ocean pic is a section of a mural over my bed in the "master" bedroom ;-). I love having things the kids have done in my house--it makes it a home--a family place and it just makes things special and full of memories for me!!
WOW! He is very talented! I love birds. I think the bird and birds nest in the dinning room are so precious, I need touches like that in my home.
ReplyDeleteI especially love the bird's nest! In my last two home I dida lot of stenciling and murals. So far, nothing like that in this house, but maybe someday...
ReplyDeleteYour son is so talented, did he continue with his art? The murals are wonderful:>)
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful and thoughtful! What a great memory to always see in your home. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThose are so lovely. You must be so proud to tell everyone it is your son's creation.
ReplyDeleteTake care,
Connie

That little nest with bird really looks cute in that corner. He's very talented and how nice you let him use his artistic talent in places like this :)
ReplyDeleteThose are both so lovely and special.

What special touches your son has added to your home! The bird and nest is so cute!
ReplyDeleteKatherine
BEAUTIFUL :)
ReplyDeleteI like how you call the mural a "memory maker". It looks so nice!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Mrs. C
Yes, your son is quite talented. He must be a genius. Someone should award him with a couple billion dollar grant... Heh heh.
ReplyDeleteThey are both beautiful - I'm sure they bring a smile to your face each time you see them.
ReplyDeleteYour son is very talented. The pictures are just lovely. I love lighthouses!
ReplyDeleteSwing by my blog and see my Show & Tell item for this week. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/hmschlmomto2/399229/

How precious. I particularly like the little bird/nest. What an unexpected little touch above the door. My husband has collected lighthouses for years. He has quite a few pictures, etc. but no murals on the walls. Very nice work your son did.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my place today. Funny story about your son playing basketball--I can just see a little one running down the court hands up!Is that the same son who did the art work?
What a talent your son has - how wonderful to have his artwork upon the wall of your home. I have always wanted to have hand painted art on my walls - but if I tried it - my husband would have a fit! ( I can not draw worth a hoot)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.

He did such a wonderful job! What personal and homey touches.
ReplyDeleteYou asked about the figurine in mt fall decorations. It is from the Vintage Virtues collection by Kathy Killip for Demdaco.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful....such a talented son.....
Thanks for dropping by to visit with me......Betty
Those are beautiful. I am especially a fan of the bird's nest. Does he do house calls???
ReplyDeleteThose look beautiful! I like your apron too. P.S. I agree with you as well, my house was built in the 40's too and also has a very small kitchen.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that your son painted the murals! The little nest is so sweet and I love the scene in your bedroom. A great show and tell, thank you for sharing it with us!
ReplyDeleteKelli
How beautiful! I realy love the bird nest. what a cute idea. Nice to know you are the kind of mom who lets your kids draw on the walls! LOL!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great memory to have and I am sure you will never want to paint over them!
Your son is very talented and you are a very loving mother to let him paint on your walls in order to make a special memory...
ReplyDeleteI love his Murals...
you must be very proud of him
Those are beautiful! Your son is so talented! I really love the birds nest!
