The Birds and Beads

My momm (@aikimomm) makes THE coolest garden hangings. Large clay beads, clay birds, (all made by her, of course) and wood pieces all strung up to hang in one's yard, home, wherever. This isn't the greatest photo ever, (or even very good!) but how fun to catch a real bird landing on it just so whilst I was doing yard work this afternoon--so cool!!

...and speaking of @aikimomm, it was her birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY momm--Love you!!! :-D

How incredibly cool for that little bird to come and hang out a bit with a clay friend -- love the way his head peeks out at one end, and his tail the other. Thanks for the loving tribute, Jenn -- touting my clay work and my birthday, too!
