Easter Birds!


I bought these little wooden birds a while ago because I thought they were so sweet, though at the time I had no real idea of what I'd do with them!

But Easter inspiration struck, and I decided to make a birdy Spring decoration!

I've covered them with colourful papers and hung them from a branch from my garden, using some pretty gauzy ribbon I had leftover from another project. They're now flying happily across my wall reminding me it's almost summer!

Happy Easter!

  4. How creative and pretty!
    I often buy things and they wait for their turn to shine. I love that each bird is different, yet of the same palate.
    Sounds like a lot of fun to hop on a train and go exploring a town. Can't do that around here.
