These birds were painted last year by Becca Kallem. Visit her blog to grab the full set (there are twelve birds in all), and you can print them out to use as ornaments or gift toppers.

Beaded Garland Wall Art DIY
Here’s an easy way to fill up a large wall. A few people asked about the beaded wall art from a photo of my old apartment in yesterday’s post, so I thought I’d share the instructions with you. It’s an easy craft project!
You’ll need many strands of beaded garland (I used 18), an inexpensive café rod, and a little bit of paint and a paintbrush.
Take the café curtain rod and paint it so that it blends in with your wall color. You can prime it first if you’re worried about the paint sticking, but this is not a heavy duty piece so it should be fine without primer. String the garland on the curtain rod, attach the brackets to the wall, and hang your creation. Easy!

Terrarium Craft
This book looks fantastic. I bought teeny little deer and even teenier little mushrooms last month, and when Brandon saw and asked me about them, I sheepishly told him that I was going to make a terrarium for Eleanor. I think he thought I had gone a little nuts. I’m going to need this book for some inspiration (and to show him that terrariums can be cool).
p.s. The publisher is having a giveaway for Terrarium Craft, along with a DIY terrarium kit here until June 30.

His and Hers Mirror
How cute! Makes me want to break out the Silhouette machine. (And why didn’t I know that frosted vinyl existed?)
