Ceramic Bird In Nest

AGGH!  My life has gotten crazy as of late and I haven't been able to much crafting or blogging.  I hate it when life gets in the way of my craft addiction!  I did paint & antique this little ceramic bird for my Spring decor:

I made the next with some twig garland and a string of beads.  He has looked super cute as a centerpiece on my table with my bunnies.

I love ceramics because when I was little, my mom would take us to the ceramic store and let us pick out whatever we wanted to paint.  I can remember doing it from the time I was just tiny and truly believe that I owe my love of crafting to my mom.  I hadn't painted a ceramic in YEARS, so this was really fun and took me back to some really good childhood memories :)
