Birds of spring

As the weather warms up, I am waking up each morning to the sounds of birds outside my window.  Their song and the nest like texture of these little whisk brooms have inspired me to alter a few more...with a bird theme.
Just a glimpse of these little creations. They are not quite done.  I've got a table full of projects right now.
What's on your project table right now?  I'd love to hear!  Don't forget April is giveaway month! I will announce a weekly giveaway each Sunday, starting April 3rd.  Are you ready to WIN some rooster with a side of rusty and vintage?! Thank you for your follows and comments. xoxo
I'll be linking up to some great parties.  Come and join me! Just click below to visit and be inspired.
