Holy Frame Wall Batman

I had to put Batman in the title in order to get Ed fully on board with the little house project I'm ready to share with you guys. What, you ask, is Ed not 100% in love with in our humble abode? That would be the Wall of Frames that I put together in the basement...inspired by my new favorite blog Young House Love. He is slowly warming up to it ~ especially since it is filled with special photos and trinkets of our life.


The wall is in the basement across from my office on the way to the rest room so I pass by it no less than 10 times a day (TMI...sorry) and it makes me smile every time. One of my favorite items is the shadow box with Joey's and Lucy's the first collar.


I also love how the plot of our property looks on the wall rather than in a folder buried in my desk. It's been a dream of ours to own our own place so why not showcase it on the wall!


This view shows a really cool picture of the boys (Joey and Little E) watching tv, the menu cover of our old local breakfast hot spot, Thomas' Ham and Eggery, and the Guggenheim Museum ticket stub from our first date.


I'd like to say the wall will continue to grow, but I promised Ed that I would not add any more frames. BUT luckily these photos and trinkets are interchangeable so as we develop new memories, we can put them up on the wall. And who knows...maybe Ed will change his mind about the wall one of these days...:)
