Birds and more for sale on Wednesday

May 12, 2008

Mosaic2788833

This is the second half of what the shop update will include.  18 items in total.  Everything will go up on Wednesday (that’s May 14) at 11:30 am EST.  Prices will range from $110 for the smaller birds to $350 for the owl.  Everything else will be somewhere in between (although the two animals will be $45 each). I hope you’ll stop by!

My sister, Rachel, was in town over the weekend which was awesome.   She is six years younger than me, and she’s a lawyer now.  So crazy.  We have a great time together.  Now it is back to the sewing machine for me.  That incredible piece of fabric I found is slowly being transformed so stay tuned.

I had a great Mother’s Day.  The weather in Boston was 60 degrees and sunny and perfect for a morning 1/2 mile hike here in Wellesley (just the right length for a 2 year old and a 4 year old to complete without wining about being tired).

My sister and I got pedicures – always a nice treat! 

And we spent the afternoon at Cairn Croft, a private garden in Dover, MA, that shows outdoor sculpture and is open one weekend a year. This is the third year we’ve gone and it is always amazing – incredible landscape design and breathtaking sculpture.   

All in all, a great day.   I hope you had a good one, too.
