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?
I love your collection - it's wonderful! I collect small paintings and books depicting places I've been. xo
I love treasures that tell a story! Where did you pick them up? Wherever it was, I hope it was a grand adventure.
Visitors 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.
Great finds you have to remind you of your travels.
I 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!
I 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...
a lovely display! I love to collect too. It brings back great memories for you and is an interesting conversation piece for visitors.
Since 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.
Love the pencils...visiting from Friday's Finds.
Awesome!
We 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.
I collect Dragon Flies - and I like to get anything with a dragon fly on it when I travel too.
