A few little things ~


I received an email this weekend from Joy, a sweet reader that generously gave me the link to a tutorial on Cathe's blog, Just Something I Made.
I love Cathe's blog and don't EVEN know how I missed this, but I did!
You can check out the tutorial HERE for yourself.

I made an attempt to make my own little wire nest and it turned out OK!!
I really don't have any egg shaped beads but I did find a pearl that did the trick ~ I love the look of the dark wire too.....
Don't you love how information is shared between bloggers???
Thank you Joy and Cathe....these are so neat!!



I did create a little artwork this past weekend too! Here is a plaque that I've added to
The Feathered Nest Shoppe

I love fairies and it was time to make some fairy art!
You can visit the shoppe HERE ~






Wishing you a very happy Monday dear friends!
xxoo, Dawn

Aren't wire nests fun to make? I've been making them for a year or so and they are always a hit!

Love your art Dawn!

Great job!!
I tried to make a wire nest on my own, but not so hot!! Better get over there to see how it is really done. =0)

Then have to get back to work on my NEW BLOG: Treasures from the Heart Gift Shop.
I actually just did not know getting a new blog was so easy and did it quite by accident.
Now I have a list of questions my friend.
I'll be emailing you.

Thanks and blessings,
Barbara Jean

PS Love your new fairy treasure.

I went to this tutorial and then I called my daughter over and I made four nests & she is making me an earring set with a broach out of brown coppery wire. I love them! By the way, I have sent you a small surprise that should be there sometime this week. Thanks again for getting me hooked on blogging/creating/sharing & no sleep. ha ha
