For the Birds

So, I’ve got a few things to show y’all, and they are all avian in nature.

First off, there’s this fabric.

Here is another view.

It is Echino Birds of Summer 2009 by Etsuko Furuya and I think it is lovely.

I love and adore it and want to hug it and squeeze it and name it George. (My silly quote here is from The Abominable Snow Rabbit. You know, maybe I’ll just channel Bugs Bunny all day. It couldn’t hurt.)

Then, I wanted to let you know that the Ka Ka Ka-Coo-Coo bird has been spotted in the wild. He looks something like this.

Finally, I wanted to show y’all something funny. See these

napkins? They are vintage — from my childhood. My mother got rid of them a few years ago and sweetly passed them along to me. I just love them. Well, my sister emailed me the other day about

these pillows that Pottery Barn is now featuring.

Kind of funny resemblance, right?

What have we learned?
1. Annie is crazy about birds. Always was and always will be. (She might be just plain crazy, too, but the jury is out on that one.)
2. Echino is way cool. I’d take one of everything.
3. Ka Ka Ka-Coo-Coo birds bear a strong resemblance to Kevin in UP.
4. Everything old is new again.

Over and out. Y’all have a great Monday!
