I Found It!!!!

I had been pulling out my Spring Decor and couldn't wait to pull out this quirky clay bird but to my dismay it wasn't anywhere!!!!  I have been looking all over for the past couple of weeks, I looked through everything in the attic when it was 90 degrees with sweat running down my face and in every tote in the shed with no luck.

We moved here a year ago and there is so much to organize.  I had almost given up on finding it then one day I was moving a bookcase in my craft room, trying to organize it better, when I took down a cosmetic luggage case, that I am doing some altered art on, from the top of the shelf and I heard something inside.  When I opened it there it was!!!!!  I was so excited and thought to myself in a million years I wouldn't have thought or remembered to look in that spot.  I was trying to protect it in the move with a couple other items so they wouldn't get broke.  Sometimes you need to make a list of the places you put things so that you can remember where you put them for safe keeping!  I thanked the Lord for stiring me up to move this case that day and finding my bird.

So I thought I would dedicate this post just to this little bird that I have in my bathroom toothbrush holder.  I so enjoy looking at him when I brush my teeth instead of all the work that needs to be done in this room.  I love the style of it, the color of the clay used, and the colors of the glaze that was applied. I like that the glaze wasn't applied all over it just adds to the character of it.   I found this little guy at a thrift store before we moved here and am glad to have finally found him.  I will do a post on some of my other spring decor later.
