  2. IHeart Agapanthus! We don't have much art around our house yet, but of the pieces we do have, I love to see one that I painted in high school. In no way am I an artist, but I did act as one to finish an assignment.

  7. IHeart Agapanthus! My favorite art in our house right now is the five-frame display of wedding photos in our stairwell. They're huge photos in b&w and are a nice reminder of our wedding, which is especially nice when we're knee deep in a project and ready to kill each other :)

    My favorite artwork that is floating around would be a rocking chair crafted out of wood by my great grandpa. He made it probably 60 years ago and it has been passed down to me. It doesn't technically hang on the wall like most artwork, but it is only for show. I love it.

    We have a cherished piece of custom art. My husband and I were married 6yrs ago on the beach in the Outer Banks. Our artist friend spent each morning painting a water color of the exact spot where we were married. At our reception the following week he presented it to us after it had been framed. We were very moved. It is above our mantle and we love looking at it! Each year we vacation at the same spot, it's interesting to see how much the beach has changed.

    My favourite artwork is a beautiful sketch my sister-in-law drew for my husband and I from one of my favourite wedding day photos. It means so much to me, and really is beautiful.

    I am really enjoying decorating my house with a few more nature themed artworks, so I LOVE this gorgeous agapanthus cut out. Stunning!

    My favourite piece of art is actually a wall of photos! I created a photo wall with all photos and trinkets of different sizes and shapes but tied together by having black frames. The photos - of family, friends, fun times and even momentos (a ticket stub, a note we received from a hotel on a romantic getaway) not only bring a smile to my face every time I walk past but they remind me to slow down and enjoy one of the most used but less appreciated areas of my home!
