MAKING A NATURAL BIRD NEST

 My friend was reworking her coffee table display and she needed a bird nest.  Here is what I came up for her.  Super easy.  I will be making more of these!

I went out to the backyard and picked up some tree branches that had fallen. I used the glue gun to build the base.


I used preserved moss and Spanish moss to fill in the base.







This literally took all of 15 minutes to make.  It was nice that I have faux robin's eggs in my stash.

VALENTINES CARD 2021

This year's card started with a postcard image found on Pinterest. After I printed it off, I rounded the corners and applied a Paris postmark stamp in the corner. On top of this, I added a bejewled red heart. Using my old fashioned rubber date stamp,I stamped February 14, 2021 onto the card. I printed a Valentine greeting on vellum paper and glued it to the card. The card had such a Victorian feel to it.  





Happy Valentine’s Day❤️
