These last few weeks have flown by with fall finally here. As I am a few weeks away from having my baby, I have been scrambling to get my house ready for the new member of the family to arrive that I have neglected my blog. I am here now and hopefully will squeeze in another post before I'm busy all over again.
Halloween is less then a week away and I hope you are having fun preparing what you will be this year. Our family is going to be Minions. Our son loves the movie so we thought he would love us all being Minions. It's a simple costume, yellow shirts and overalls. I have a wonderful friend who knitted us hats that are the Minion's faces. So we will be all decked out next Monday.
I love bird art. I think it is a simple beauty that birds often are, except for maybe during the Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Birds". For me personally, I think it has a lot to due with that often fun question, what superpower do you wish you had? I have always said, to fly. So, birds fascinate me, especially bird art. I am not the only one who has found bird art pretty. The trend a few years ago was to put a silhouette of a bird on nearly everything and called it art or cool. Birds were popping up everywhere and not real ones, just images of birds. Me being a fan of bird art anyway enjoyed the new trend. Yes, it has become cliche enough that the popular show, Portlandia, did a skit about it. I have put the skit below for you to enjoy and laugh at.
In my home, I have many different and unique things hanging on my walls. All have a purpose or story. I am not a fan of hanging something without meaning on my wall just to fill space. Two pictures I have come from my Grandma's home. After she passed many years ago, we went through what she had and took things we wanted to keep to remember her by. Two of the many things I kept were two bird art prints. I have kept them in their original metal frames and have had them on my wall for a few years now.
They are simple but pretty and hold a special meaning to me. So, if you are feeling fun one day, put a bird on it!
