TEN ON THE TENTH

On the tenth of the month, a bunch of us share ten things. Any ten things. All different kinds of ten things.


This month I've been inspired by KATHRYN'S post HERE, and GINGER announcing that her theme for this year's MAIL ART EXCHANGE  is going to be WORDS.


I like words...especially quotes, and am often drawn to home decor items -plaques, cushions etc. with words on them...and today I'm going to share ten of my favourites!

In no particular order:





This one always makes me smile, as it actually came with the pegs to hang 'things' on!



It's the photograph that's not straight...not the plaque:) which hangs in DD's room




If you go over to SHIMELLE'S blog HERE, you should find a list of other possibly random, but most definately interesting 'Ten on the Tenths'

Hope you've had a lovely Easter weekend!

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx
