I love big, old trophies and awards. I think they make great decorating accessories.
Engraved? All the better.
They give a room some personality. So what if it is someone else's personality? It still looks great.
It means a lot when other bloggers appreciate what you do.
Now if only these wonderful awards came with sterling silver trophies....
Instead I will have to be content with my kids soccer, basketball and swimming trophies. Maybe I'll paint them white like Jackie Terrell did. Think my kids would mind? Or even notice?
Thanks again to Small and Chic in Cville and Chasing Davies. Be sure to stop by their blogs and say "HI".
