Pin-It-Foward: What Home Means To Me

Monday, June 21, 2010

I am participating in SF Girl By Bay web event Pin It Forward, where bloggers link to each other and share what home means to them. So Unruly Art Class forwarded to me last Friday and I’m passing the forward on to Urban Comfort.The tool we are using to capture What Home Means is Pintrest and I'm a little addicted to it. You can follow all my Pinterest boards or visit my Pin-It-Forward board to get more images that convey my ideas of home. Below are a few photos and my list. Bottom line...I feel most at home when in the country, and am eager for the time when we can make this dream a reality.

WHAT HOME MEANS TO ME
GOOD FOOD SHARED WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS
love to cook, especially pies and potatoes. family night with my brother and nephews is the highlight of our week.
STORIES AND LAUGHTER
long stories and belly laughs, especially with all my aunts, uncles, and cousins.
ARTWORK
lucky to have many artists friends and a daughter who is eager to paint.
BOOKS AND PHOTOS
can’t get enough and really make a house a home.
VINTAGE AND NATURE INSPIRED COLLECTIONS
things that have been hanging around my life for a long time like aprons, dishes, alarm clocks, nests, rocks sort of round out the look of our home.
ZINNIAS, HERBS AND TOMATOES
these things make my heart sing and teaching the wee one to garden is a good thing.
CUDDLING WITH MY HONEY AND BABY
no explanation needed.
ICING ON THE CAKE
the smell of grass, the sound of whipoorwills, the twinkling of fireflies, and sitting on a porch swing at dusk.

    What great photos! The one with all the aprons is so wonderful. I, too, collect vintage aprons and bird nests and rocks (heart shaped ones). And I love zinnias. :)
