OPENING APRIL 8 FOR THE SUMMER

I'm planning to open the shop for the summer on April 8.  I've been going to garage sales and sewing a few new items.  Here's a picture of the most current item.  It's a cleaning apron to wear around the house.  My granddaughter had to wear one to help me clean the other day....love having her help!  She had a spot for the dustrag, dust spray, cleanser and toothbrush, and was ready to clean.

Here she is getting that sink really clean!

Took a packaging bag apart and made a cleaning apron out of it.  It's made for adults, but kids like it too.  Has two pockets, one deep pocket and a strap to hang a cloth from.  Makes cleaning a lot more fun..... just ask my granddaughter :)

GIFT CARD/CASH HOLDERS FOR NEXT CHRISTMAS

Today I had a great time creating little stockings that you can use to put  a giftcard or cash in at Christmas, then use as a tree ornament later.  Or - just use as a tree ornament.  They're turning out really cute.  Can't wait till spring to see if they sell in the shop

CLOSED FOR A WINTER'S BREAK

Bird's Nest is closed until April....looking forward to a 3 month break.  I'll still be stoning birdhouses and sewing, but will be able to have a little time off now and then.  If you need an item, please e-mail, and we'll set up a ship date or time to come to the shop.  Praying you all have a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year.

CHRISTMAS OPEN HOUSE STARTING THIS WEEK-END

The Christmas Open House will be starting the day after Thanksgiving and all through the next week.   There will be several other vendors there displaying their items too.  One is Cindy Bontrager with several winter banners, large and small, along with barn siding signs and others.  Here's a picture of what she did with some cans.



These could be used for Candle stands, or put some greenery in, or your Christmas cards.      The other vendors will have  homemade soap, handy towels, handmade   baskets, &   christmas tree ornaments.  The dates are Nov. 29 and 30, and Dec. 2-7.  Open each day 9-5 with refreshments served.  Come on out and fill your gift list.  Love to visit with you.



OCTOBER GARAGE SALE FINDS







Went to several Garage sales last week and found several cute things.  This little glider was one of them. 

A gentleman brought some old barn siding garden items too.  They are so neat, and well made.  Several little chair/planters, three garden benches, a coffee bar, and two bookcases. 

Here's a picture of the garden benches.   I'm also including a picture of the garden chair and bookcase.  These pieces are all put together with screws, not nails, so they should hold up well.  See you all soon.
