30 Days of You and Me: Day Seventeen

Today's topic? An art piece that is my favorite.

I'm strange about art. I really don't have a lot of it in my house. I don't get into famous paintings or sculptures (real or replicas) or anything like that. It's not that I don't appreciate such things. I'm just not addicted to them.

My house is mostly decorated with things that have sentimental value to me. Pictures of people I love...little trinkets that remind me of an event in my life or someplace I visited. Probably wouldn't mean anything to anyone else and I'm okay with that. It's my house and I love it.

I've shared this on the blog before - last fall when I did Kelly's "Show us where you live" tours:

My favorite piece of artwork. It's a print of a drawing my friend Amber did when we were in high school. I'm in awe of her talent - and to think this was her high school talent...wow.

When the Hollands were over for Pancakes with the Princess late last month, they commented on it...and I was so proud to tell them about Amber. (So much more fun to talk about an artist I actually know!)

So that's my fave! What about you? What's your favorite piece of artwork? (Whether you own it or not...)
