Eye SPY: Around the Home
This week’s theme–anything you feel inspired to take pictures of around your home. To get the caught up on the I SPY series, click here.
And now,
Welcome to the nooks and crannies of my home.
I Spy the first thing you’ll see when you walk into my home–a friendly reminder of my latest neurosis, no shoes inside.
I Spy our very first family portraits hanging over our couch.
I Spy baby-proofing on every door and cupboard.
I Spy lots of hidden treasures shoved under my TV stand by Baby W.
I Spy a framed picture of the “newlywed days”.
The days of tan skin, no stretch marks and lots of date nights.
I Spy my favorite artwork.
{Family Rules sign by BOP, picture frame by Bed Bath & Beyond, Baby W painting by Modern Bird Studios, Cutlery Wall Art tutorial here}
I Spy leaves cut from old book pages.
I Spy a glimpse of my gray and blue bathroom.
I Spy a sorry excuse for a pantry. Sad, I know.
Are you craving Lucky Charms now?
I Spy the wall where I tested paint colors for our master bedroom…2.5 years ago.
I Spy a toddler playing, and the teeny tiny workspace where I write most of my posts.
I Spy a baby who wants his Daddy to feel better.
I Spy a baby who doesn’t understand what NO means.
I Spy the world’s fastest clapping baby–who is clearly very pleased with his disobedience.
I Spy the highlight of my day–a surprise brownie pop package in the mail, from a dear friend of whom I have never met face to face.
I Spy the power of a heart-felt note, and the thoughtfulness of true friendship.
I Spy a hubby determined to get out of the house, one way or another.
I Spy my forever, resting on our front lawn.
I Spy a home,
where love lives.
Please link up your posts below.
And pretty please include a link to LMM in your post so other can learn about our party.

Super fun theme! When does the linky close? I'd love to write up a post on Thursday if possible…just discovered the party but have been a follower for a while. 🙂
P.S. Tan skin and no stretch marks were way cooler than unwashed hair and flabby skin.

I love the collection of pics above the couch!
Let me ask you: does your hubby let you have free reign in the decor department or does he give in put? just curious; mine definitely gives input!! (lots and lots…)

I have to post mine later. I didn't get to do it today. But I will post it.
Your husband has the thing on his knee that I had when I had surgery. The ice water thing that attaches to the ice machine that is in the ice water. THAT THING SAVED ME! I LOVED IT!!!!!! Sorry, just had to tell you that!

Your house is so cute. I love all the little details like the leaves from the pages of books. And I LOVE your pantry. Mostly because I am jealous. I don't even have a pantry…I have to stick my can goods in every little spot I can find.

I love this idea. Thanks for hosting. I don't know what happened to my title. I titled it I Spy Home Edition and it changed to a link title for a different party.
I hope your husband heals quickly.
Delia
This post was so creatively cute! I love your shoes stop here sign. We have a pretty strict no shoes policy in our house too.
Julianna
What happened to your husband?? I am on week number nine since breaking my tibia/fibula and ankle. I can finally walk again, so I literally feel his pain… and yours! It really is hardest on the spouse! Good luck and sweet post.

pamela
Hi, I am TOTALLY in love with your above the couch photo organization with the candle holders. Any idea where you bought the candleholders? I have been trying to recreate your gorgeous idea but all the candle sconces I have found aren’t “just right….Thanks for the inspiration!!
Miss Me

Where did you get the frame above the couch “All because two people fell in love”? Did you make it or buy it? I love it!
Deanna
I love the pictures above your couch. What size photos did you use? Are they a 16×20 canvas and the other four 5×7? or are they 8×10? I too would love to know where you found the saying frame below the canvas. Thank you!

I have been browsing online more than 3 hours these days, yet I never discovered
any interesting article like yours. It’s lovely price sufficient for me.
In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content material as you probably did,
the internet shall be much more useful than ever before.

There is certainly a lot to find out about this topic. I really
like all of the points you’ve made.

discovered it and I’ll be bookmarking it and checking back often!

I would love to duplicate, “I Spy our very first family portraits hanging over our couch.” It’s absolutely gorgeous! What sizes are the frames you used? 11×14 & 20×24?
