I have always loved this symbol and have them throughout our home. as well, my husband and I decided to use the pineapple motif on our wedding invitations {which we collaborated on and designed ourselves} as a welcoming gesture to our guests, but, also, because we think they are beautiful and regal and represent where we're coming from since we live in a tropical place. so, we thought a pineapple would be perfect. ☺
back to our home, though... as I was gathering photos for this post I thought to myself, we actually have a lot more pineapples around than I realized {we even have slightly more than what I have pictured here}. they must be discreet, though, because no one has ever come to my house and said, "hey, I see that you collect pineapples" as they do with other items we have a lot of... interesting, huh? anyway, here they are!:
on the tea towel on our bar cart and as part of a flower arrangement {in the 1st photo}:
here they are in the flower arrangement again...
this is actually a candle. it's on a sconce in our hallway:
...we have 2 of these candles; the other one is on our mantle:
right outside our home!:
this is a finial that I painted and screwed into an old lamp base, I liked both pieces better this way ;)
here it is unpainted:
it's the base of a lovely marble top side table- too bad you can't actually see how beautiful the marble is in these photos:
this is a pineapple lamp that I made, you can see how I did it here
and here's the proof of our invites!
