i'm obsessed with: pineapple decor

I've loved pineapples as decoration ever since a trip to Italy where I spied them on gates throughout Sorrento and the Amalfi coast. Pineapples are known as the symbol of friendship, welcome and hospitality, and historically they announced the hospitality of mansion owners through carved wood or molded mortar on gateposts. Here are some sources for pineapples to use not only at your door and on your porch, but inside your home as well.
