there is always time to link up
if you have forgotten.
The party lasts for 3 days.
So go pull your post together
and come back
and link up your lovelies!
We'll be here waiting for you.
:)
P.S. Ricki Jill and Karena --
you two were the inspiration for this month's theme!
EVERY one you've shown here is my "favorite"! I liked the close up shot from the old farm picture.....and the small ones are so significant when framed & treasured. I feel like I've just come off a wonderful tour of a small, intimate art gallery.
ReplyDeleteAlison, just left a comment, but I think it disappeared. Grrrrr.
ReplyDeleteWill come back later to see if it shows up and if not, will leave another.
Enjoy your weekend...........Sarah
Hi, I’ve just discovered your blog! I came over from Garden Home & Party… your stairway is amazing! My best wall-adornment isn’t traditional artwork in any sense, but to me it feels that way…
ReplyDeleteNow I’m off to explore your kitchen. We’re planning a remodel, and it’s totally overwhelming!
Wow, you have so many wonderful pieces of art....every one of them is just stunning! I really don't have a lot of artwork in my home because I tend to like pieces the pieces I can't afford. LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend :o)

Alison, your art is beautiful and perfect for Polohouse. It's a treat to see it within the vignettes of your home as you live with it. Our art is very eclectic, purchased on travels or from a local gallery that represents many artists from across the US and other countries. Getting to know some of the artists personally makes their work all the more special, just as living with beautiful art is a wonderful gift in life. Thanks for sharing more of your gorgeous home. I feel as if I've been in a beautiful art gallery this morning. Enjoy your celebration weekend! ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteI love the variety of art you've shared with us today, Alison! :D And I'm so honored and humbled that you thought of me for this link party's theme.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a close-up of the lovely landscape above your bed in the hayloft. Your house is so special!
Thanks so much for hosting, and I look forward to seeing everyone's treasured art.
