For
Show and Tell, I wanted to share something that is sitting on my coffee table. The
bunnies are probably familiar, but the new thing is the jar. :) I had been wanting a (real) bird's nest. A few weeks ago, my sister-in-law brought me one that a bird had build on Mark's grandmother's wreath a year or two ago - don't worry, it was vacant. :) Later I found this jar at a Salvation Army sale, and put them all together. (I found the eggs before Easter... aren't they cute?)
I love the artful way the birds arranged their little home - the softest layer for the little birds.
"To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life. "
—John Burroughs
Happy Friday!

Dear Charity,
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog and leaving such a nice comment. I love they way you arranged the bird's nest and eggs in the jar; very creative and lovely. I enjoyed reading the poem by John Burroughs on the rewards of the simple life, and I absolutely love the apron you made for your pastor's wife. The fabric is beautiful... great job! I love teapots and cups also, I like to collect them.
Blessings to you,
Mrs. Teapot
