I not only love to create art, I love to collect art too. When I travel, I like to bring home art that will remind me of where I have been. I display these treasure as collections throughout my home. These wooden pencils, doll and sage smudge wrap are displayed together on a book shelf in my living room.
What art collections to you have in your home?

I have the same habit. Where are these pencils from?
ReplyDeleteI love your collection - it's wonderful! I collect small paintings and books depicting places I've been. xo
ReplyDeleteI love treasures that tell a story! Where did you pick them up? Wherever it was, I hope it was a grand adventure.
ReplyDeleteVisitors to your home must have a wonderful time just looking at all your beautiful vignettes. I bet you are the most popular gal on the block.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds you have to remind you of your travels.
ReplyDeleteI do that, too. Shells and rocks seem to make it home with me. Feathers if I'm lucky enough to find any. And art I may find in a gallery. And post cards. Especially if I can find some old ones... I'm too much of a collector -- and that's a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteI like your fat pencils!
Great finds, I love the photo. We have a linky party going at:

I really like the way you have grouped your collection...I am like you, I love bringing back a piece of art to remind me of where we have been....I really enjoy adding to my pottery collection if available...
ReplyDeletea lovely display! I love to collect too. It brings back great memories for you and is an interesting conversation piece for visitors.
ReplyDeleteSince eventually I'm going to be downsizing, I bring back recipes from where ever I go...It's fun to go back to a happy vacation time through food.
ReplyDeleteLove the pencils...visiting from Friday's Finds.
Awesome!
ReplyDeleteWe have some prints on the wall.
And my husband has collected quite a few Native American pieces over the years, since his family is 100% by blood and many of them make and sell their crafts at the powwows.
I love love love your collection.
