A couple of weeks ago My Bff Mo and my sister, Courtney, gave me another baby shower. It was fun, with all of my close friends, and had a little bit of a bird theme going on. (Important to note for the record: none of us are really theme-y people, but this was pulled off really nicely without being too over-the-top, grody theme-y. Thank you and good bye.) One of the cute things they did was cut silhouettes of birds out of really cool, patterned paper then hung them all around. Once the shower was over they decided to keep the paper birds for me in case I had a light bulb moment and thought of something interesting to do with them.

Unfortunately, I don’t have many of those so-called light bulb moments and am not typically very creative. However, Courtney sort of led me to think about mounting the birds on white paper then framing them and hanging them in the nursery. While doing some shopping on Sunday I found some picture frames that were 40% off, and not being able to deny myself of a good deal I bought four of them thinking I would try the bird-framing idea.

Again, not necessarily a fan of birds, per se, and without doing a major bird theme in the nursery, I think I really like how the whole thing turned out.

Not only do I really dig the patterns and colors that are going on, but what’s better than an art project that takes less than fifteen minutes?

Nothing, that’s what.
