A Little Bird Told Me ...


A little bird told me ... it's the start of Spring (almost) and the birds are as happy as we are. So we thought it appropriate to have birds as our March Featured Product.

bird |bərd| • noun • a warm-blooded egg-laying vertebrate distinguished by the possession of feathers, wings and a beak, and (typically) by being able to fly. 

Birds seem to have fascinated man right from the start. Maybe it is their ability to fly. Or their beautiful plumage, especially of the males in mating season.  Or could it be that they are soooooo cute!

And birds have found a place in many of our favorite colloquialisms:
birds of a feather flock together
a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush 
the birds and the bees
kill two birds with one stone
a little bird told me


We recently came across these fantastic folk art birds made of reclaimed wood, tin and such.  These are made just outside of Atlanta, Georgia, and clearly come from the imagination and hand of an artistic person.

Birds, Birds, Birds


This Spring we have seen more birds than normal around our house. Why? Don't know. But we love it! The bird feeder is filled with mountain finches, nuthatches and titmouses. The quail and doves wander our backyard and red capped woodpeckers hammer away at the gnarly old trees in the park behind our yard.

In the shop we have accumulated a nice variety of birds in many shapes, sizes and materials.

We love paper, so we have some bright and beautiful bird themed decorative papers, vintage bird prints and journals.
For the garden and patio, we found these sleek wooden birds that stand high on metal rods that are anchored by a natural rocks. And these wire sculpted birds are equally happy inside or outside.
Birds look best in natural settings. Check out these handmade bird decorations.
The vanity and walls are not forgotten, as we have these wonderful vanity items - jewelry holder, vanity mirror and tray - with a cute little bird perched on them. We also have some glass & metal shelves, magazine racks and wall hooks with birds as well.
To hang pictures, mirrors and the like, or just to use as drawer pulls, we offer these sparkling enamel and rhinestone birds and fleur d'lis.
I am sure there are more birds ... so come on in and check them out. Or contact us via email or telephone. We are here to help you find birds ... and other interesting items.
