I found this idea for creating personal "portraits" out of everyday life objects. I love the idea! This morning I gathered objects to make little portraits for M, G, and myself. They turned out only so-so, but it was a fun process.
Honestly, I enjoyed making the one for myself the most. Something about trying to artistically arrange the simple objects from my life into a pleasing collage felt profound and healthy. It was something of an exercise in thankfulness.It might be neat to make these collages every couple of years as a unique kind of journal.

I just linked over to your blog and wanted to tell you that I LOVE IT! You are so creative and have so many fun ideas! We are so excited to try them out! Thank you!
I don't think that they are so-so! I think that they are awesome! What a very cool idea!!!!
I love seeing some of the significant things in your lives. They are laid out artitistically.
Thanks so much, Ash!
Thanks! Did you see the original site's photos (from the link)? They're really amazing (and inspiring)
I'm a little curious...were any of them surprises?
That's such a cool idea. It would be interesting to look back on those years later and see everybody's favorite things were.
