Reminisce with Fishing Home Décor
As a kid I would go fishing with my dad. He loved to get up in the early morning hours to catch the first fish of the day. I wasn’t as eager as he was about getting the first fish or putting a worn on the hook. We would get all our fishing gear together along with fresh worms and head for the dock. I have to admit it was beautiful, calm and quite. All you could hear were the birds singing, the breezes blowing and the lapping sounds of the water against the boat. The vision of the sun rise and all its magnificent colors were breathtaking. As we took the early morning ride to our fishing destination we would sit quietly taking in the sights. While fishing we would visit, laugh, me squirming as I baited the hook, and dad trying to be patient while teaching me. It didn’t matter, at least to me, if we caught anything or not, it was about spending time with my dad.
These were very precious moments spent together. I often think of them fondly and find myself wanting a piece of that memory close at hand. To recreate these memories I have added fishing home décor. Whether I tuck a figurine on a shelf, hang decorative plates or wall décor, they all bring me sense of joy. You too can bring back memories by adding home accents.
