Because I have been sick for awhile,
and because I have already posted some of my newly finished things on other posts,
I decided to show you some of my favorite treasures I have done this year.
Bird Nests
I make my own,
and I love to put them on or in unusual things.
Like spoons.....
or two....
or like 1 1/2" pins.....
or frames with old music....
Another framed piece, in sweet Spring colors....
A flower nest out of handmade lace paper,
sitting on a vintage glove....
How about an old rusty and patina piece,
or a little tin scoop.
*or old light fixtures....
jewelry boxes...
and tiny silver plates painted black.
So these are a few I have done.
Some still available at the store.

Hi Barb! I don't know how I missed some of these bird nests you made this year as I read your blog faithfully but the one on the spoon is beautifully genius! I can't wait for it to warm up outside so I can scrounge around for some pine leaves and make one for myself!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSo adorable!
ReplyDeleteI wish you a Happy New Year!
I LOVE this post! There is something so endearing about nests. And you do them so well!

ReplyDeleteHey Barbara Jean!
ReplyDeleteI do love your bird nests! My kitchen is done in birds. I have birds everywhere in there! I have a real birds nest right outside my window in a rose bush. Wonder if I can bring it in the house? It sure is cute!

These are just some of the most adorable things I've seen!!! I love eggs, and have painted on quite a few, and I've also woven baskets from different things, but making these sweet little bird's nest is just a wonderful idea! I will have to check out your tutorials! Linda
ReplyDeleteYour bird nest creations are simply beautiful. Can I ask where you find the egg forms? Our local craft stores are kind of limited and always on a look out for new finds.
ReplyDeleteI love all of your bird nest creations, they are wonderful. I was just thinking about spring and nests, and now I am really inspired.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!

ReplyDeleteI particularly like the ones in the frames with music.

These are so cute! Bird's nests are such a sweet surprise- my parents found one in their Christmas tree this year after it was up. They put a little cardinal in it and it was quickly the conversation piece of the season.
