This post really could be called "loving what you got part 3" because this was completely done by just tweaking things a little here and there and rearranging where things were in my home to make the mantle completely new!
And springy!
BRING THE FREAKING SPRING.
I'm over winter.
OV-ER it!
The art you see is actually fabric wrapped over a large canvas and stapled.
You can read more about it HERE.
Don't you love this little birdie?
He's so cute.
But his feet? UGLY...so you can't see them.
Picked him up at Dollar Tree!
(yah, I made the drive to the states...just to hit up Dollar Tree & Wal Mart...Target was another hour away and we had three kids with us...so yah...didn't happen!)
Do you have one of these husbands?
please tell me I'm not the only one.
He just does-not-get-it.
But he SUPPORTS it.
Which is all that really matters.
Just don't ask him about painting the walls.
That's a WHOLE OTHER STORY...which will start and end with:
"but there's IS paint on our walls..."
ah...hahahahaha!
Love ya J :)
you really are the best.
even if you don't get the whole "mantle" thing.
Spring Spring. Bring the Spring!

Lol! Wow he would love my house because I have NOTHING on the walls or anywhere else! Yeah, I really need to get to decorating!...It's been 2.5 yrs! but first I have to paint, and before I do that I have to pick paint colors...which would require me to make a decision which I am apparently incapable of doing when it comes to decorating...so my walls, mantle, etc stay clutter free...which happens to drive my hubby crazy! lol
omg...my husband calls everything clutter. I have to fight just to hang something on the wall! I *love* your "clutter".

I do love the little birdie, and couldn't stop myself from laughing at the thumbs down photo! Sounds just like my Sexy Nerd.
It looks wonderful. My hubby calls my decor clutter too, sometimes. Decor is not for everyman.

Ha! Husbands...mine is the EXACT same way! I love the blues...very calm and springy. I'm with you---so OVER WINTER! It's snowing here, too! Augh!!!
