Bird's Nest Spring Centerpiece

I've got spring going on around the house. I shared my creation for our front door a few days ago. If you missed it...it's here!
Today, I'll show you my spring nest centerpiece that I made for our dining table.

The little birds are actually our very first ornament from our first Christmas together!

This shabby pillar is what I used to give the basket nest some height.

I added the wreath of greens for more spring interest. It was a Goodwill grab, a few years back, for $1.79!

A painted terracotta saucer, with strands of pearls, worked out just right to hold the nest.

I painted the natural colored basket and then wet distressed it by removing paint here and there with a wet paper towel. It gave it the nice, shabby look that I like.

A blurred view and sneak peek at our bay window dressed for Easter this year.

I'm so happy that spring is almost officially here!

Honestly, I can't stop walking by it...it so darn "tweet!"!

I'll be working on our bay window post, it's got a really fun spring branch that's hanging in it. Do keep watch for it's reveal!
Love, Hugs and Kisses,
