Beeoooteeful Birdhouse
Had another one of those pesky birthday things recently (thanks for all the good wishes on facebook!). Hubbie and I headed to the mountains for a fabulous weekend where he spoiled me rotten.
One of my favorite gifties is my new birdhouse. I saw these in the Christmas Shop in Copperhill, Tennessee a few months back and just flipped over them. Supposedly the guy who makes them used to work with Disney. Can you tell?
I've placed it in my office, on top of my orange book shelves, with my other creative whimsies - a Howard Finster angel, a wooden proportion doll wearing a finger puppet, Peanuts stuff from my childhood, dolls I made for some of my early book attempts, a sweater doll a friend made, one of the hand-puppets I used to make for fun, etc...
I wanted it somewhere where it would remind me that not everything in life has to be straight lines, y'know? I loves it!

Can you tell us the birdhouse maker's name? I love it!
Actually, I was hoping information would be included with the birdhouse, but it wasn't. I've emailed the store and will let you know what I learn!

I love the birdhouse, we are going to Tennessee for our anniversary and I am going to see how close Copperhill is, heard the crafts are great. Lucky you with a Howard Finster, I love his work.
Hope you can make it by there Susan! (Be sure to stand with a foot in each state if you do.)
Yup - love my Finster even though the marker he used for her hair has faded from orange to blond.
I'm still trying to find the name of the artist, btw!
