Back in February I signed up to swap some vintage goodies via Vintage Swaps. My swap partner was Dara from Deetles Bird. I received the scrumptious goodies above from Dara: a tablecloth with floral cross stitch, a chiffon lacey apron, buttons and 2 snack sets. Thank you Dara, I am thrilled with these goodies! Thank you Heather for organising Vintage Swaps!

Here is what I sent Dara: a Wabasso double size flat sheet, a Sarah Coventry flapper style necklace called "Caged Pearl", a crochet doiley and crochet trim.

Birds are Calling...

Their melodious tunes haunt the tranquil treetops,
A bright array of sound by day that never seems to stop...

The beauty of birds can be shared by all,
Take the time to listen to their enchanting calls...

~Written by me when I was a teenager.
I've always been a nature girl and have always been fascinated by birds. I listen to them and watch them often, and I love birdie things of course.

The lovely vintage inspired hang/gift tags above are from Petite Paperie Shoppe, an etsy shop that specializes in vintage inspired hang/gift tags.
