    Thanks girls

    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. :stew1:

    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 :(

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