Fridge Stalker

Can I share a secret? I have a strange string that draws me to people refrigerators. Not for munchies, although I do love the occasional smackerel, but for pictures. Literally, when I step into a new friend's home, I can hardly wait to look at their fridge.

I cannot begin to count the number of times as a guest I have uttered the words "Do you mind if I look at your photos", stopping at the fridge and of course hitting the picture walls. So here I am sitting at a computer, wanting to look at all of your refrigerators. To capture the essence of your home with magnets stuck to faces.

Wish I could visit ... until I can here's my favorite picture that continues to cling to my Fridgidaire. And because I love pics, I'll be sharing some with you on Saturdays. If anyone wants to join me, leave me a note and we can connect them up and have a fridge linking party.

My fridge is so full of pictures, some old, some new, that you can barely tell the color of it. Hope you have a great day!

Love you,

Darling picture and what a cute idea. I have no pictures right now as I recently edited them. I know I am a neat nic. When I get new ones, I always put them right up and leave them quite a long time. I, too, love to look at others' refrigerator pictures.

That is really a sweet one Sara. Our frig is full of photos too. I really probably should update a few of them. I'll try to post one or two soon.
Have a great holiday weekend!

Sara, I can just picture you doing this. However, at my other house the fridge was maple on the outside so those magnets didn't cling. Now I do have a normal fridge but Greg hates to have anything cluttered. Can you believe it? However, if you come into my private space ...I have lots and lots of photos all over. Does that count?

I loved the photo of the boys as babies. They are so cute!

Love to you,
Debbie

Bless you!

Cute photo! And up until about 3 weeks ago my fridge was also covered in pictures. I took them down because our space in our kitchen is so small that when more than one person passed by the frig something was sure to fall off! So I'm determined to display them somewhere else! :)

Have a great weekend!

My wife so enjoys putting photos on the fridge that when we ran out of space, I bought a 3 foot by 5 foot sheet of white sheet metal and had it framed (they looked at me very strange at the framing shop). It is hanging in our hallway and covered with pictures. What do i do now?

Oh how funny Sara!! I have a picture of my son as a new born baby covering his face on my fridge...that is one of the pictures. ;) It makes me laugh. Have a great day!!!

Wanda said...

Too cute...I can see why it's one of your favorites. No photos on my fridge though but perhaps that's b/c I don't have children. Have a great 4th of July weekend!

Love this! Mine had been up since last August when school started! I took them down this week, scrubbed a little bit, and put back up some of my favs...now more room to add some new ones!! Happy 4th!
Hugs!

I don't have anything on my fridge -- but I did have a wall of photos just inside the front door that introduced visitors to our lives!
