While linking through other blog posts last week, I got the urge
to "kopy kat" Springtime Bird vignettes I was seeing.
I remembered that I had purchased several bird nests at
90% off at a decorators After Christmas Sale.
I got those out of the attic along with some candlesticks
and containers in the beige color range. I also found
some birds that I had gotten at Dollar Tree and
Hobby Lobby at some time in the past.

You cannot be serious! Who would pay $10 for a bird's nest? I guess the decorator did. |
I just pulled anything that looked Christmas-y out of the nests |
To add to the things I already had in the attic, I got
unpainted pine birdhouses at JoAnn's ($1 each),
a birdcage at Michael's ($5 on sale),
a metal bird basket at Ross ($7), a bird plate ($5)
and a three bird sculpture ($5 on sale) at Hobby Lobby.
I played around with the elements that I had to see what
looked best for the bird-themed vignette on top of the
flea market console my husband and I painted.
I painted the little bird houses and even the birds so my
elements would be in the same color family.
Here is another bird pair that is in my living room
that stays up most of the year.
Stopping by from Debbie's newbie party... I love the birds and nests they look great! Very spring-like. I love that bird cage you got from Michaels, I might have to go get me one!

I love everything about this vignette. So cheerful. I am now following. Stop by and visit.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful vignettes, The console you refinished is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI'm your "neighbour" at Tabletop Tuesday, A Stroll Thru Life and I'm so glad I popped over! I want to get some nests and put them on all my candleholders! What a terrific idea! You have so many pretty little birdies too and have used them in lovely vignettes. Painting your accessories in complimentary colours really paid off - everything looks so coordinated!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! I love birds/birdhouses --- did my living room in them. Your "creations" looks so pretty!
ReplyDeleteHello, stumbled upon your post at a Stroll Thru Life's Tabletop Tuesday. I love little birdies and you have done such a terrific job displaying them. Have taken a peak around your blog and like what I see. You have fabulous taste and a beautiful home, during my peak I discovered that you are a Neonatal Intensive Care RN and I wanted to give you my regards. My daughter was born very premature, weighing in a just a little over a pound and spent 4 months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Her nurses were absolutely the best and I know it was partly because of their care and dedication that she is still alive today. It takes special people to do what you do so I just wanted to say thanks and God bless.
ReplyDeletei love it all! so spring. thanks so much for sharing this at my party!!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love all of your vignettes. I so need to remember the nest idea on the pillar candlesticks. That is so pretty with all your bunnies. Beautifully done, and so spring. Thanks so much for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
