Birds Of A Feather

Posted by Jeannette On Tuesday, March 06, 2012

Well you know what that say birds of a feather will flock together.Now if I can just get them up on there birdy feet we will be getting some where.Lately I have been wanting to make some birds so I sketched a couple of them out and set about making a pattern.


The one to the left will be a peacock these are just the proto types mind you.I haven't quite got them right but I wanted to share what I have been working on.The pattern making is hard and takes time.I'm not that great really but once I figure it out I'm good to go.


The one to the right will be a blue bird of some sort I think.I was thinking I might use some of the cut work lace I found.I would really like to find some old embroidered tablecloths but the one thrift store near me never has any.Once we move from Lamar I told my husband I want to live nearby some really great thrift shops and antique stores and hey an artists colony would be fantastic as well.The peacock was a request (sorta) from an Etsy Buyer who asked if I made birds or animals.I told her I would be making a peacock and a little bird soon and she loves peacocks.

My Uncle had peacocks when I was small he had lots of different animals actually.My Aunt would always give me some of their feathers that had fallen.He died two years ago after a long battle with Cancer.I'm making these in honor of him.


Next up is a Wood Pecker for my momma cause that is fer favorite bird.The bag you see to the right is my new paper gift bags I may use to send some of my creations in.I like the tag but my daughter did it and well I had to add it on their.

I'm thinking on the outside I will apply a nice label/sticker and on the gift tag their name.On the inside will be a post card with all my relevant information.My husband is always getting boxes and brown paper because he buys products to resale.So far I have saved all the brown paper and burned all the boxes.These two gift bags came from 1 box and recycled paper.


Now I feel better that I'm helping to save a tree and the planet.That's all for today ladies hope you enjoyed reading my blog post.Come by and stay awhile and visit me often.
