CONTAINERS
They are
everywhere in our homes
in one form or another.
in one form or another.
When I was trying to think
of a topic for
February's edition of
Favorites on the First
I looked around the house
and wondered what inspiration
I could find.
I have vessels and containers
everywhere.
I know ....
you're thinking
you're thinking
the "H" word
about me again.
:)
(If you watch "In the Middle",
a hilarious weekly sitcom on ABC-TV,
you can appreciate
that right about now
that right about now
I am picturing
the youngest son, Brick,
tilting his head down
and whispering into his chest
the word "hoarder"
right about now.)
Yep.
Yep.

Anyway,
I scrolled back through my
old photo files and found
these shots I had taken
through the last few years.
Will take new photos
for the post on February 1st.
Hope you will plan
to join me then to share
the favorite containers
in your home too!
on the 1st. Everyone is welcome!
I love all these pictures of containers in your home... too many great ones to pick a favorite. By the way, we adore Brick at our house too!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say you are a hoarder at all... you just have a knack with using and making containers look wonderfully inviting. It's not hoarding if it looks nice, in my book anyway! Melinda
Beautiful shots Alison! See you on the 1st!
ReplyDeleteYou have the loveliest way of containing you "stuff"... albeit, beautiful stuff! I think this is a super idea! I need inspiration and this linky will be full of creative ideas... and magazine worthy images, I'm sure. Now off to put the date on my calendar!
ReplyDeleteYou have some stunning containers, love them all. I will put a reminder on my calendar. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeletewell you certainly have a way with those containers. each and everyone is unusual and pretty
ReplyDeleteokay, now my heart is doing the happy dance!!!
ReplyDeleteyou always strike a chord
Alison, it's a brilliant idea! We all have "hoards" of containers through out our homes. I don't consider us hoarders, we are just like groups of things. LOL
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to playing along on the 1st......Sarah
You are a girl after my own heart...I am a "containerhaholic' if there is such a thing. I have them everywhere!! I love yours and how you have displayed and used them. Great and inspirational ideas Alison!
ReplyDeleteYOUR containers are fabulous. I love dough bowls. I do have two. I keep fruit that we eat in mine. No styling in that. hugs, olive
ReplyDeleteYour containers are wonderful, Alison...this post made me look around...of course I am surrounded by them, too lol!
ReplyDeleteI never heard of that show before, so I had to watch the video. And OMG.... that's my son raking leaves, seriously how can anyone be an uncoordinated leaf raker - but mine is!
ReplyDeleteBliss

So much inspiration here! Containers are so fun.. they are functional and look great (especially yours!). I like the white pitchers and the dough bowl! P.S.Hoarding is not attractive so.. forget that!
