FRIDAY FENCE POST #30--Dog Faced

We have bedroom windows, as do most people. Other people have lovely views, of gardens, or mountains, lakes, or maybe trees. Some people look out on blank walls, derelict buildings...Hey! That's us! We have a great outbuilding of some sort right outside the window, with fascinating areas of peeling paint and a cloudy window. Somewhere there's a designer looking for exactly this bit of Shabby Chic to dress up a landscape. I'm sure of it.

Between the outbuilding, which is in our neighbor's yard, and our window, is a fence. Even better!



Another really cool feature of our "view": There's a dog's face in the fence. I found it just today, and I know I'll never look at that fence the same way again.

I think it looks more like an ornery wild boar than a dog to me!

LOL! The captcha actually reads "howled"!

Ha, I used to find faces in the wood of my closet door. Being a kid, sometimes the faces looked a little scarey.

I love that you found something interesting in your view. I think the term 'wabi sabi'(imperfect beauty) might apply here too.

You're right about that widget. It really gets my attention, much more so than the etsy mini.
