Please join us for shopping with a twist on Friday April 10, 2009 as we present For The Birds.
Spring is here, and you don't even need to look outside your kitchen window or open your front door to know it. Just waking up to the sweet melody of a backyard robin cheerily singing outside your window is enough to tell you that life is renewed and spring is reborn. The birds of spring have returned and the earth reawakens.Outside, in our fenced yards and open fields, brightly colored bluebirds and streaked song sparrows flit between tree branches and land carefully among the budding leaves. Singing songs of love to each other, chirping madly over jealousies. Bringing home odds and ends to build their nests - bits of bright string, broken twigs. Items insignificant to everyone else, but the stuff of life for the feathered set.
No matter where we live, or what the season, avian accessories create eternal springtime in our homes too. Birds and their nests placed carefully upon our shelves, painted delicately on a wall, stitched on a delicate needlepoint. Perhaps we invite into our homes the same birds we see each spring. A veritable rainbow of color unfurls inside and out of our homes in the hopes of eternal spring.
I have designed some beautiful new Springtime Celebration stationery featuring vintage birds and cottagy accessories. For all purchases today, I am including $16 worth of freebies - including free shipping and personalization! So, run on over to Business in THE Bag and see what we have to offer. You won't be disappointed!
... and then hop on over to Make Mine Pink to check out what all the other participating boutiques are offering for this fun Bird theme.
...til next time,
