Inspiration wall

It was fun to go through things to find new items for "the wall".
The stained glass foam Jesus one of the kids made in school.
The wooden bird house my brother made.
The old marbles Tom's Grandmother had.
The ceramic pansies picture Sam picked up for me in a ceramics shop.
The cardinal and blue jay my niece Angie gave me.
The little crackled pot with the Easter egg, one of the boys teachers gave them. 

This is my prized Scooby-Doo bobble-head that Kevin gave me for Christmas one year.

A friend embroidered the picture, tea stained it and painted and distressed the frame.

When I was young I collected little animals when I went on vacation, or I got them as gifts.  This wall will be the perfect place to show them off.
The worms are funny with their hats and the bear and cat are the size of the pinky fingernail.


The mouse my Mom gave me when I had my tonsils out, the raccoon was picked up on vacation, the glass elephant my Mom gave me and I must have picked up the cat.
