BLUE MONDAY


Hello and welcome to Blue Monday hosted by Sally of Smiling Sally. If you go to her blog you can get a list of all the other participants. Thank you Sally for hosting such a fun event!



This morning as I was going through my files looking for some blue I came across these bird nests that I had made last spring. Since we had another cold snowy weekend I am really looking forward to spring, gardening, porch sitting and bird watching! I sold these pretty nests on my Etsy shop last year but I think I just might get my supplies out and make some more. I think some new bird nests would be pretty for my aqua blue bath.

This second bird nest that I have pictured hangs from a long ribbon, it looks pretty hanging from a shelf or along side of your curtains.

Thank you so much for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your Blue Monday visits!
Bless you, Shirl
