Christmas Ornaments

[Rio Mom]

I came across an ad on craigslist about a woman who makes handpainted Christmas ornaments. I'm going to get one done of River. They look beautiful from the pictures of others she's done. I'm excited!

Let us know when it's done!

I don't think I'll do a tree this year, but if I did, I would decorate the entire thing with bird toys. Lol.

 

[Rio Mom]

ACK?! No tree??? I absolutely love Christmas trees! I would have mine up already, but I've been staining the porch/stairs and don't want to have to haul the tree and everything out of the basement (door is only from the ouside) and up the hill around to the back. I will just have to wait until the stain is dry. I will definately show a picture of the ornament when it's done. If I like it, I will probably order ones of the other pets eventually too.

Well, I live by myself in a small apartment, so it's not like I'm depriving kids or anything. I might get a small potted tree for Puck, but I'm considering moving into a cheaper living situation and then taking a long trip (with Puck, of course), so I don't feel right taking on another living thing, lol.

Pine trees are bird safe!

I've decorated my palm tree before, & they have the small potted pine trees that dont take up alot of room. I've done a mini tree before & it was beautiful. I planted it in my yard the following spring.

I can make custom ornaments with photographs they go on ceramic stars and the image will never scratch off. I'm making a few for my mom for christmas! We do coasters too!

I'm hoping to kind of do the same for Keen and Opi. Although, Opi FREAKS whenever I put anything new in his cage, so maybe not Opi. Keen is always game for something new to play with.

Two eleven year old toy fox terriers, an eleven year old cat, and a three year old cat. I need to get around to putting them in the nonfeathered pets section.

That tree is a very convincing fake. lol. And River, as much as he wants to play with the giant shiney tree, isn't allowed on it lol.
