Throw Me Somethin' {Mardi Gras: Door Hanger}

Cynthia Kolls, of Art by Cynthia Kolls, did it again! She took my idea and made it happen. The acorn symbol with a king's crown is a perfect door hanger for the Acorn Cottage.

I adore the shape and the use of glitter for a festive presentation. The customized piece is perfect for the Carnival season.

Be sure to check out Cynthia Kolls on etsy for custom door hangers, art pieces, or ornaments.

Mardi Gras Acorn, y'all!

Giving Thanks for ... {Acorn Door Decor}

Every year I enjoy hanging the large acorn door pieces by New Orleans artist Melissa Henry of Show Me the Door. I guess the Uptown Acorn has an affinity for acorns. And yes, I do.

The French symbol for prosperity, the acorn is also considered to be an emblem of luck, youthfulness and power, the acorn is a good luck symbol. It also represents spiritual growth.

The acorn has always been a favorite symbol of mine especially in decor and accessories. The tiny acorn grows into a majestic oak.
