ALWAYS BE HOME BY LAUREN TURNER


From the super-lovely, Lauren Turner.....

"I was going to submit a series of photos I had taken on the theme, but this one stood out for me.It's the outline of a dog outside his home in Surry Hills, Sydney, to show where he used to lie every day - it was painted in white last year after he was hit by a car outside the house and sadly died. He was well-known in the neighbourhood and I think this was a lovely gesture that means people will always remember the dog - and in some ways he will always be 'home'."

HOME TRINKETS BY LAURA LEONARD

Beautiful images from Laura in Orkney!

"This is just a quick one this month while the kids are sleeping!!
I like to collect things.  I treasure wee trinkets and love handmade objects, my HOME is full of them. I encourage my kids George (age 4) and Rosa (age 2) to do the same so I asked them to pick some special items to put in their shelves. Here they are..."

"Included is Rosa's 'Dorothy Shoes', Georges handmade truck from Scott, love heart purse from Gillian, mouse and ladybird from Australia and a Peter Rabbit money bank."

WHAT DOES HOME MEAN TO ME BY ANNE HOODLESS

Here is Anne Hoodless's 'Home' submission - a lovely collage of images, memories and quotes.  Thanks Anne!

"For this month's project I thought I would keep it simple and bring together some pictures that conjure up the meaning of Home to me.  I’ve added in some of my Mum’s old pictures, with my Grandma Annie Walsh to the newest members of our family little Thomas." - Anne Hoodless



HOME RACK BY CAM EWART

Here is the lovely Cam Ewart's 'Home' submission, thanks Cam!

"My art club piece is a hat rack/multi-purpose-hanging-thing that I made for Loz's Birthday.

I got the idea when we were away in Maldon for the weekend. A homewares shop was selling things like this & I decided that rather than buy one, Id make my own.

I bought all the items from Schots, in the odds & ends section. I made it in my shed, using my drill, a Mr Men ruler & two glasses of wine.

2 of the hangers are actually made for this purpose. 1 is a doorstop & the other a doorbell. 

Home is where the HeArT is..." - Cam Ewart
