While at my mothers house for Thanksgiving…
I noticed a wee little trend appearing all over the place…
Or should I say obsession …
It first showed itself in the living room…
on a couple of throw pillows
and a modern side table.
Then it appeared just a few times in her closet…
decorating her
shoes…
hats…
& quite a few handbags…
even her clothes hangers got some animal print love…
She’s a wild one for sure! 🙂
Zebra, cow and giraffe print covered her
Coffee mugs, plates and rugs…
& the formal antique dining chairs had little zebra seat covers.
Mickey their yorkie couldn’t even escape it covering his bed…
I think he is beginning to worry a bit that his next sweater
will be leopard print…
After all, the animal print decorated everything…
even my mother!
So, do you think this might be a bit of a problem?
Should we do an intervention?
Or seek help from the
APA?
‘Animal Printaholics Anonymous’?
Frankly, she has always been a wild and crazy kind of girl…
maybe that is where we all get it from…
I have to admit, we are all kind of a crazy bunch out here
So I guess animal print would be a natural choice for my mom to be
decorating her world with.
It is just like her…
wild, crazy & lots of fun!
Love it!
Isn’t my mother adorable?
She approved this post and thought it would be fun~
No animals were harmed in the decorating of either
my mother or her home!
LOL!
LOVE YOU MOM!
🙂

I, too, love animal prints and your mom uses them so perfectly as little touches in her home {and clothes!}. She looks like a real sweetie and I bet you are as close as me and my mother were.
