Thanks Frank,

I made the birds from a pattern, and white felt.
They are stuffed.......with fiberfill. I glued on the eyes and flowers and gold trim......

I also have them in blue but they do not show up as well......

Thanks for the compliments.

Barb your centrepiece is lovely. I really like the way you've draped the beads and the birds are an inspiration and set the whole thing off wonderfully. Thanks for letting us see your Christmas creation. Stew Face 1

What a very welcoming arrangement!
I do SO know what you mean about waiting, I painted a bunch of cards and sent them off in such a rush I forgot to photograph a single one to put in my blog Sad

Really pretty Barb. And you incorporated flowers in the design too, of course. I like the spiral tree in the center.
