Do you have any of these items in your home?
"Established in [insert year]" plaque with your last name
Footprints in the sand poem
Thomas Kincaid painting
Word decor (bonus points for inspirational wall decals, a sign pointing to the cafe or powder room, "live, laugh, love", or anything that says "le chat noir")
Accent wall
Chalkboard paint
Spiral votive holder
Oversized fork, spoon, or any other common item mounted on the wall (if you bought that giant oar form Pottery Barn, please don't admit it here)
Re: Do you have any of these items in your home?
Cambria, Keira, and Bonnie Quinn
The only thing close, that isn't displayed right now is a sign that says "Lake" that will someday be hung in the sunroom of our house that we'll build on land that we own by a lake.
Other than that, no to all the rest
None of these except for something in our kitchen that says "well done is better than well said" DH made it after he completed the kitchen.
Don't worry, I'm working on it.
Get it on!
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
wow, no
I do have collector plates, though.
We don't have any of those.
That chalkboard paint is neat, but it gives off gases even after it's dry--so it won't go in our house.
Yay, I'm in the clear!!
Not anymore. Old house had an accent wall.
My dad has Kincaids
No to all.
Forget-Me-Nots: Alaska State Flower
What is an accent wall?
My MIL has a fake Thomas Kincaid. She calls it her Timmy Kincaid painting.
None of the above...
I bet her FUPA's name is Shane, like the gunslinger/drifter of literature.--HappyTummy
We have an accent half wall. It would look weird if it were the same color as everything else. Especially because it's a red room looking into a green room.
Bug's room has a le chat noir poster.
"The meek shall inherit the earth" isn't about children. It's about deer. We're all going to get messed the fuckup by a bunch of cloned super-deer.- samfish2bcrab
Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
no, none of these things! phew!
no to all of the above. and i think parents should get special cool points if they don't have their kid's name in wall or shelf letters up in the kid's room either.
i will confess to a silver picture frame with "i do" stamped in the bottom.
and we were GOING to paint a little rectangle with chalkboard paint in the sunroom/playroom for the baby when she gets older so she could draw on the wall, but perhaps now i won't if it damns me to a hell inhabited by thomas kincaide and vera bradley.
We have none of the listed. However, I have been thinking about doing an accent wall
