Trophy Envy

I have never been the sporting type, I figure you can't be good at everything right? I really enjoy being active and love to kayak, walk and rollerskate but I have never been any good at team sports. I'm not sure if Australians are just really big on awarding trophies compared to their British counterparts but every Aussie I know seems to have a huge collection of trophies gathering dust in their home or garage.

I have never owned one single trophy. Not one! I suggested to my boyfriend that he should get me one for being such a fantastic girlfriend and was openly laughed at, the cheeky devil. When a little beauty caught my eye whilst rummaging through a local antique shop I snapped it up. I am now declaring myself 1956 indoor bowls champion!

I have my eye on a few larger beauties on Etsy and am inspired to use some in my home.

Do you own lots of trophies? What were they for?
