Snakeskin in the Home

I'm itching to do something with snakeskin around the house. Which, frankly, might seem odd because I HATE snakes. For reasons I cannot explain, I'm simply paranoid about even the thought of a live snake anywhere near me.
 
(Tangent: To illustrate my point...I literally almost dropped my 4-year-old daughter and ran for the hills at the sight of a teensy "harmless" (HAH!) baby snake a few weeks ago. No, seriously. But rather than get down on myself about that embarrassing coldhearted knee-jerk reaction, I can only applaud my maternal instinct of not dropping her. It was close, though. She won out by the most marginal of fractions. But still. She won. Gold star for me.)
 
So. Snakeskin. In its faux and inanimate state, it's such a pretty pattern.

What do you think? Are you Yay or Nay or Meh on interior snakeskin prints?

  1. Hm. I say nay to snakeskin. (Mostly because I tend to just see one big unfolded snake?)

    But I do not doubt that you have the ability to make it look MAHVELOUS. :)

    1. I know what you mean, Katie...I think I'll have to be careful to do anything snakeskin related in large, solid chunks. That way there's no WAY I'm seeing snakes around here.
      Oh, and als: *blush* You're sweet. An exaggerator, sure, but super sweet. :) I miss you.

    1. Interesting. Probably not that uncommon a sentiment.

  3. This post makes me think of our run up the canyon over the summer. I'll never forget your reaction when we came across that first snake. I'm laughing right now just thinking about it!

    1. OH. MY. GOSH. That was quite possibly the worst, slash, scariest run of my entire life. In which it was determined that I'd reactively jump into oncoming highway traffic rather than catch a glimpse of one of these things alive and slithering. Ugh.
      Know who else is laughing about it? Probably the driver of every car that passed us jumping 14 feet into the air at the sound of rustling weeds.
