Things In My House Thursday # 28

>> Wednesday, February 4, 2009



For TIMHT #28, I am going to share something that ended up with me after being used as a rather pricey, short-lived, practical joke of sorts - on someone else, by someone else.



Yes, this character found a home with me. This regal monkey is hanging on the wall at the top of the staircase - where few people will see it or notice it - we kind of forget it's there....


It's an 8 x 10 oil on canvas in a much larger ornate gold frame.
The kids hate it, but the colors are great, and the monkey theme suits. So, unless one of you makes me a great offer.... it's ours for the keeping.


Please share something in your house!

I love the regal monkey print in the ornate frame. It's perfect!

So, you're saying it's not hung alonside the other family photographs? ;-Þ

Ummmm....Now, that's interesting. LOL!!

LOL on Renna's comment. That cracked me up.

I love that you proudly display whimsy. I find Ms. Monkey to have a little glint in her eye on the verge of a bigger smile or perhaps she has a secret.

Okay, what can I say? That is truly awful! You really need to tell us the story behind it :) I'm very curious now! (Also, I apologize that my entry today is really a stretch ... but it was something I wanted to blog on while it was fresh :)

Muddy - thanks for appreciating!

Renna - LOL! That's even funnier than you know!

Amy - 'interesting' is a nice word for it :)

Carol - Monkey does Have a Secret, LOL

Susan - didn't your mother ever tell you, if you can't think of anything nice to say...... :) :)

I think that picture is atrocious. It is so ugly.

You are all too funny...It must make a great conversation piece for anyone who stops over...or are people just afraid to bring it up?!
It is still before midnight here, so I joined TIMH Thursday...Natalie
