Have ya ever been frog kissin'

oldcrafty
12 years ago

These 2 have sat on either side of my front porch for years. They used to be green and over time faded and turned white. Was tired of looking at white frogs, so gave them a quick paint job. They were NOT dolled up in their previous life, but couldn't resist giving them a happy new look. Just wish I would have thought about taking a before pic. Was once told the chinese believes that if you place a frog on each side of your door they will bring you good luck,who am I not to accept good luck!
