Bedroom Show and Tell

This week at No Place Like Home, Kelli asked us to show something from our bedrooms. I just posted my bedroom, (scroll down) but thought I would focus on some of the items in the room. This picture has been in our bedroom for many years. I think I bought it at a Walmart. But I love it and won't replace it.
I have four "prints" like this, two on each side of our armoire. Each one has a different item in the center. Found at Kirklands. Kinda like a mixed media.
A friend (JB) gave this to us for our 5th anniversary. I just have always thought it is so cute.
This is above my armoire. The two mohair bears were a gift to us for our 25th anniversary!
This book is probably one of the most precious items in our bedroom. It is a love story that my husband had made for me. He is the hero and I the heroine. It has our birthplaces and different personal touches through-out the story. This book is very special to me.

I hope you enjoyed seeing some of our "things". I can't wait to go to all of your blogs to see your show and tell!

First off, that book! Wow, I'm speechless...you have a sweet, caring man...I'd keep 'hold of him for sure, for sure!! And the second framed work down, the one from Kirklands---is that copper and embossed? No matter, I really like the effect it has...

Mine is all about a project I did for fun this week, won't you stop by? Happy Weekend!!!

I love the picture and I don't remember ever seeing the book that Hubby did for you. How precious is that!

Constance said...

I liked the book the best! How special that must be to your heart! What a great idea and romantic too! Don't you just LOVE Kirkland's? They always have great stuff at affordable prices. I was just in there yesterday with our youngest daughter who is getting married in November. She had never been in there before but was VERY impressed!

Your bedroom is beautiful. What a special book you have. Sounds like you have a very caring husband. I especially like the large jewelry box. I've always wanted one of those.
Have a great weekend.

Wow, what a treasure that book is!! I love that print at the top, too.

Needled Mom said...

The book is such a sweet thought. You have a special man there.

Pudgeduck said...

What a thoughtful gift. I've not seen anything like it before. About 13 years ago I went through a phase and crafted mohair teddy bears--probably made 25 in a year. I've since given most away, but I kept those I purchased. They are in a trunk, along with collector dolls and other past interests. Your bears bring back memories of my one-time love of bears.

Connie said...

So, what is a Kirkland's? Not sure we have such a critter in Ohio.

I like that picture of the children whispering.

Do you remember that plaque above Grandma's kitchen door that said "Prayer changes things?" That's above my bedroom closet door - and it's one of those "never replace" items, too!

Been by my blog lately?
