Happy New Year

For some reason I became obsessed with the idea of making tiny party hats. My first idea was to put party hats on vintage ornament style animals and hang them on the Christmas tree, but I couldn't find the vintage animals that I pictured in my head. Instead I got out my vintage bird collection and put them on a small artificial tree that I found at the Last Chance Thrift Store that is at the Marina Land Fill. (Fun store, and what a great concept... donate usable items on your way to the dump.) If I'd had more time I could have made little hats all day. It's so fun to make things on a small scale because it goes so fast.










Now they are all ready to sing in the New Year. Have a happy and safe celebration!

These are the prettiest little things ever! They make me laugh because they are so adorable and precious on your birds. Beautiful photos, you must take after your daughter (or vice versa).
