A Little Nesting Project

I wanted to share a little Spring spruce-up project with you today. Nothing ground breaking or earth shattering. Just a quick pick-me-up for my Dining room, which sported pine cones and glittered snowflakes this year for longer than I care to admit.

Like my Spring Bunny Frame , my Newspaper Easter Eggs, and the old Easter Bunny Makeover, most of my projects as of late have been completed using only items I had on hand in my house.

I found a tea cup display stand in my Spring decorations storage box. It used to sit in my Kitchen until I got tired of dusting it constantly and decided that maybe tea cups on display weren't my thing anymore. It was a nice surprise to open the box and see it. Kind of like when you change purses and discover your favorite lip gloss, long forgotten.

Anyways, I thought it might be fun to relocate the tea cup display to the Dining room, which was feeling neglected. I moved all the sewing stuff I'd been busy with and got to work fluffing, using items I found in the storage box. Luckily, I like birds.

Each tier holds a different nest. The second tier has malted milk balls from Natalie's Easter basket. I may or may not have eaten three of them before putting the rest in the nest. And I may or may not have told Natalie that those were not good to eat and she should not touch Mommy's bird nest eggs or she might choke.

So there you have it. A nice, fresh look for my Dining room that cost me nothing. But maybe I should go buy Natalie some more malted milk eggs.
