Hello my friends,
The other day I was feathering my nest; putting away Easter and pulling out my bird decor.
I started thinking about what we could learn from birds.
So as I show you some of my décor, I will be giving a little advice. Remember, it’s not from me; it’s from the birds.
1. Build your nest to suit your style. Everyone’s nest is different and unique. It’s what makes us who we are!
(I made the banner a couple years ago)
2. Sing a song of praise for those who provide you with food and shelter.
3. Rise early to get the worm.
4. Feather your nest and make it a place where family and friends like to gather.
(the wreath was my first try at using Rit dye on coffee filters last year)
(notice the ray of sunshine? Love it!)
5. Go out on a ledge now and then to get a bird’s eye view.
6. Don’t be afraid to let yourself soar!
7. Remember it’s the little things that make our nests so tweet!
8. Go out on a limb and discover new things.
And last of all;
9. Don’t stay bottled up. Come out of your cage, spread your wings and fly!
From my nest to yours,
Hugs,
Jann

Hi Jann,
Great advice! Love your bird decor...the Pyrex with the birds on it, the stand is awesome! Never seen one like that before. Listening to lovely birdsong as I type!
All the Best,

I love the bird wisdom Jann. And all your birds and nests are really sweet. Thanks for sharing these wise sayings. Hugs, Pamela
Your nest is pure bliss. Great words of wisdom to live each day to the fullest. Thank you for the tour. Happy Hearts are Creative Hearts...
It looks like my sister & I found someone who loves birds as much as we do! We must be kindred spirits, Jann:-)

What a wonderful post, Jann! Your home is just that...A LOVING NEST for you and your family! You have such an amazing talent at making each season special. Oh, the memories you are making for your grandchildren...not to mention, your sweet hubby and children.
I love all your...(Oh, I mean your birdie's) sage advice! We live in such an amazing world...so filled with beautiful things to enjoy!
I'm leaving tomorrow (right after I say good bye to my grandbaby and DIL at the airport) to head over the mountain to the valley to help out with my elderly Mom. This is such a difficult time for my Mom...I appreciate your prayers, my dear friend.
Have a blessed weekend.
Hugs,

I listen to the birds every morning - their music is enchanting.
Love everything especially the birdcage.
So incredibly charming. I just love waking up to the songs of birds out my window, now I will also think of this sweet blog posts. You will love my latest tea party, especially the invites. I will try to get them posted this next week.
So "tweet", Jan!! Have a wonderful weekend!~~Angela
I love everything to do with birds, too. That little pillow with the Jardin script on it is delightful! Happy Spring!
I do love our little feathered friends and I cannot wait to hear them singing outside my window. I enjoyed your birdie advice and the NEST banner is so cute as well as all the sweet bird nests. Thank you for sharing at my HOME, Jann, and have a wonderful weekend.
Blessings,
Sandi
Birds are very wise indeed and I'll try keep their advice in mind. Chirp, chirp!
