Found Nest

 We found this bird's nest woven with bits of birch bark yesterday.

Here it is displayed under the glass cloche sister Lynn 

found for me a few months ago.

Tomorrow Lynn and I are going to take a little day trip...

...see what we can find.

Details of the 700th post Give Back

 will be revealed in the next day or two.

I think you will like it!

 Until then, I hope your weekend brings a little bit of fun

 and a lot of quiet, calming moments!

Utility Light Cage Repurposed

When I bought this utility light bulb protector cage thingamagig from Gather in Ivoryton, CT....I knew just what I was going to do with it.....The light bulb was still in it and a burned off cord was coming out the bottom of the wooden handle. My dad took out the cord and removed the bulb....I promptly put a tiny bird's nest complete with a few downy feathers in the cage and placed a quail's egg inside....
After I took this photo I tied a wide soft brown and cream striped ribbon on it and it hangs in the lake house.....



Imagine my surprise tonight when I walked into Anthropologie and there was an entire wall of these thingamagigs!



Who knew?
Hope your weekend is going well!
