Laura, don't hate me because of my owl stash.
I felt so guilty after reading your "owl lovin' post" that I almost sent these to Iowa for you.
But I was selfish.
I kept them all for myself.

| I picked these up here and there at thrift shops. |
 |
| They sit perched up there on my shelf all dressed in white and look outstanding with all their "owl-y" wisdom against that newly painted purple wall. I still need to add a little dimension up there, but it's almost complete and ready for a before and after debut. Maybe tomorrow night. Who knows with me. I've learned not to make blog promises! (Like my gutted dresser? Click HERE). |

| Ain't he a swell guy?! Big granddaddy with his little grandson. |
And we can't forget about this guy -
quite possibly my favorite little bird of them all!
 |
| He's just perfect for my business cards! Yay for them ole' birds tucked in the shelves at thrift stores and white spray paint! |
My daughtyer would be jealous of all your owls....the theme of the nursey for her second daughter is owls....the baby is due in January. I need to take a trip to a few thrift stores and see what I can find out there. Love the idea of painting them white....very clever!
ReplyDeleteI would not say I am an owl fan. I have one owl, and I really like it. I like yours too, and I think the reason is because they are all the same color. Must be the mismosh of colors I don't normally like. So if Laura ever sees on the news owl's strewn about on the Iowa roadway, it was probably me.

I used to collect owls back in the, er, "a previous decade" when they were everywhere. I abandoned the hobby (and most of my owls) after I got married and didn't really have a place to display them that wouldn't offend my husband... and then they went out of style, anyway. Ugh!!! But now, of course, they're popular again, and I really miss my owlie buddies!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I love your spiffy white collection, and agree that you have found the perfect spot for them in your purple-and-white corner!♥ xoxo
