House Signs ...

Most of us have a few little plaques with cute sayings on them scattered around our houses, and when I thought about writing about mine, I didn't realize I had so many ... all of which, with the exception of one, are in my kitchen.

I have three cross stitch signs that were
done by friends many years ago ...



I bought this needlepoint at an antique shop years ago and it
hangs over the doors leading from my kitchen into the dining room ...

These two little plaques came from a shop
in the French Quarter of New Orleans ...


I looked for the shop the last time we were there, but it must not have survived Katrina because I couldn't find it.

This one hangs over my cooktop ...

And last, but not least, is this little iron plaque which
hangs over our key rack at the back door ...

I would love for you to share your favorite signs. I've seen so many in catalogs and shops that I'd like to have, but it's hard to find places for them.
