BIRD'S NEST CLOSED FOR THE SUMMER SEASON

Bird's Nest will not be opening the shop doors this summer.  We want to be available to help our parents as they need us.  The Bird's Nest items can still be purchased in Shipshewana at several stores that I wholesale to, so be sure to look them up.  If you need a special item, you can always contact me and I'll be happy to help you out! The Stone Birdhouses can be found at the Dutch Blessing, NorthVillage, Shipshewana, Aprons and sewn items can be found at Yoder's Dept. Store in the shopping center across from the Flea Market in Shipshewana, and Uniquely Made has purchased some of the inventory of Antiques and Collectables I had in the shop.  They are located on Morton Street in Shipshewana.   One new item this spring, being sold at Yoder's Dept. Store in Shipshewana is the Hidden Pocket Hanger Cover.

You can hide valuables under an old winter coat, or put all the accessories for a certain outfit in the pocket and when you pull the dress out...you have everything you need.  My sister thought it would be great for traveling.  Well, time to finish the taxes!!, so back to paperwork and sewing...always sewing or stoning to do.  Have a Happy and Blessed Spring. 

BIRD'S NEST CLOSED FOR THE SEASON

Bird's Nest has closed the doors for the season.  I had a good summer and it was wonderful to visit with everyone and meet new friends along with many returning visitors.  Thank you to all who made the year a success.  Now it's time to concentrate on celebrating Jesus' birth...the one who gives us new life in Him and Love, Joy, Peace and Hope in our lives. It's also time to spend with the grandchildren.... three of them decorated our tree...(along with Grandpa's help)  and it's the most beautiful  one ever! :)  This winter  I'll be working on new items for the shop, along with getting my inventory caught up. And who knows, we may even get a little vacation down south somewhere....??  Summers are way to busy for anything like that.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas, May the Peace of Christ dwell in your hearts always...The Bird's Nest family, Karen and Galen
