Thanks to Gina @ The Shabby Chic Cottage for hosting this fun meme. Seems we all have a few feathered friends, and our birdies are part of our everyday decorations. Be sure to stop by her blog to see a list of all the other participants.
I didn't think I had that many little bird friends until I started to look around and I was just amazed. I guess I have way more than I think. lol
This photo is of a tablescape I did a few weeks ago that shows quite a few of my little bird friends. I'm using two birdbaths adorned with cute little birds as candleholders.

I also used a sweet little bird on top of a sphere and two chubby ones with cutout detail on the sides.

On the buffet table I have a little church birdhouse and 2 tiny china birds that are being watched over by kitty, but she won't hurt them.

I've placed one of the birds from my previous TT on an end table. He really likes to be next to flowers.

The coffee table has the matching bird to the one on the end table along with a tiny birdhouse and a cute little yellow bird that calls it home.

Another end table also has a small gathering of my feathered friends.

The dining room table has a family of little birds.

Here we have a mama and her baby.

Then pappa is on the other side of the table.

A large birdcage, but all of my precious little ones are flying about the house.

My lovely black swan is the largest of my feathered friends. He is carved out of wood and one that I've had for many many years. Love him.

A pretty blue bird on a plate I have hanging on the wall.

Of course I would have to have a birdnest with a pretty bird sitting on her eggs.

Then we have the famous Target birds. What a fun party we had with them.

Except for my swan, all of my feathered friends came from GW, Ross, Michaels and the Dollar Tree. They are all so fun to use in so many different ways and they just seem to make any vignette happy.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I really appreciate it and hope you'll come again soon.

Your home is quite aflutter with birds, Marty. I have one of those birdbaths pictured in your first pic--got it at Walgreens.
ReplyDeleteYou have such lovely things!
" I guess I have way more than I think."
ReplyDeleteLOL You & me both!!!!
LOVE that church birdhouse & that plate w/ teh bluebird is just darling! And I knew I'd see some Target birds today! ;o)
Hi Marty! I can't get over that you didn't realize you had birds. :) That swan is just one of the prettiest ever! I really like the plate with the bluebird too.
ReplyDeleteHi Marty! Your home is absolutely gorgeous with all of the birds. I love the plates on your wall, and knew I should've bought the bird plate that I had in my hands at a yardsale a few weekends ago, I never thought about hanging it!! ugh!! Thank you for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteMarty,
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful. I love ceramic birds, and you have such nice ones!!
Blessings on your day, and good luck on the giveaway.

ReplyDeleteHi Marty, I love every one of them but the black swan is to die for....oh yea!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks again for letting me know about this party.

I guess my birdies flew the coop, I don't see to many around my house..not even the Target birdies.

ReplyDeleteOK Marty - you know I've coveted that swan ever since we met on our RMS days right? Love him and I'm not even a bird person, inherited (sp?) that from my momma - she is petrified of them - but I LOVE that swan!
ReplyDeleteLove your collection and I recognize a couple from Micheal's that seem to have found their way home with me too.
Happy Late Tuesday Evening to you -
I just found your blog, and I LOVE it!!! Your home is beautiful. I love going to flea markets, and finding great buys on things. Have a great evening.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Pat

I love seeing your beautiful blue and white tablescape again, and all the pretty birds you have displayed so nicely. I particularly like the plate with the bird in the center. You have so many beautiful whites, you should post them again on White Wednesday next week. Everyone would love to see them! Happy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny when you really look - you sometimes find you have a "collection" you didn't even know you had! Thanks for your visit today -- you always leave such sweet and encouraging comments - always appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHow in the world did I miss those cute Target birdies? Oh yeah, cause I was caught up on the Pier 1 version!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining me.
Hello Dearheart...
ReplyDeleteHappy Feathered Friends Day! Marty...I just adore your beautiful blue & white tablescape...it really is gorgeous...it may very well be my favorite!

Ohhh...and all those sweet little birds...I especially love the bird baths that you are using for candleholders...wherever did you find those? Soooo pretty! Love your pretty bird cage and that black swan! Looking at the carved wooden swan made me think about all the wooden ducks that my Grandpa carved and painted...I'll have to get those out! He loved carving birds out of wood!
