Spring in a Jar

For Christmas I made snow globes in a jar and they sold like hotcakes, so I decided to bottle up Spring too.  I love how they turned out, but then again, Spring is my favorite season (I have a weakness for anything green, mossy, dirty, rusty, weathered...pretty much anything outdoorsy and Springy) These jars would be great for our Spring show, hope we can get it put together.

Burlap Pillows

LOVE- LOVE- LOVE burlap bags right now so I decided to throw together a few pillows with my handy-dandy new sewing machine.  I found a few old shot bags of my grandfathers that also worked well as pillows.  I really like the textural element these pillows bring and they go great with all my spring decor.

Can you say "Stalker"

I don't know if this would be considered stalking or a Peeping Tom, but I have this cute little birdie I named Robin :) who set up nest under my carport. I started taking pictures from start to finish and was amazed at how fast the whole egg, hatch, fly away process really is. One thing that I did find odd is that Robin laid one egg and then a week later she laid two more...does anyone know if this is normal?

Well, it has been about a month since my last robin flew the coop but just last week I noticed another robin frantically building a nest (maybe it just dawned on her that it is now officially summer and she is a little behind the eight ball). I slipped back into my old ways and spied in the nest and who would have thought, one egg. Now I am intrigued and want to see if some siblings come later.
