more Chirp Chirp less Knock, Knock

I usually have a seasonal wreath on my front door...
using florals, vines, twigs, ribbons and twine.
I've even used a man-made bird nest or two.
It seems that some of my feathered friends
wanted to add a more "natural" dimension
to my creations.

Last year a couple of finches decided the wreath
was a great place to nest.
The Finches were wonderful tenants. 
They built a small nest, laid very small eggs
This year I hung the wreath and the very next day 
I noticed a bit of grass on the porch and the next day more bits of grass.
finally we noticed a much larger nest.


Robins have moved into the wreath.
there is more CHIRP CHIRP than knock knock at this door.
Will there be eggs?
Will there be baby birds?
Wait and see with me!

Do You Have a Favorite Teacher?


Give an apple to your favorite teacher!
Scentsy is introducing a Mid-Size Warmer
to commemorate Teacher Appreciation week.
ABCs is a wonderful accent for classrooms, 
offices and homes. A red apple proclaims “The best teachers teach from the heart”
letting teachers in your life know you appreciate them.
The hand-painted red apple and green stem in matte finishes
are embossed on a low-gloss blackboard-like background.
A white alphabet border completes the classroom theme.
Crafted from translucent porcelain, the letters glow from within
when the warmer is lit.

Enter to win this warmer for a favorite teacher.
Leave a comment, visit my website, email 4 contacts.
The winner will be announced Monday April 26th.
