Awwww, so cute. I want you. Like...now.
Anthropologie cookie jar ($68! *gah!*)
Urban Zoologie Owl FabricOR......
terrifying.
*shudder* There are no words.
"I am going to peck your eyeballs out."
If I saw this about to jump out of a tree at me I would absolutely DIE. Right there under the tree. After peeing my pants.Anyhew...I also have pictures of decorating with old books in my Pintrest. There is something magical about old books. I even found a book printed in the 1800's! WOW.

{pinned here}So...then I saw this on Pintrest too. The old books...the bird sitting on top...{ding ding ding...on goes the lightbulb} See where I'm going with this? :)
So, I went to our local thrift store, (Hello, Rainbows End!) and found ALL of these things!
an old lamp ($6), old books ($3 each), and these owls ($6 for the pair)I love how the books add a pop of color to the room. And I love my new little friends.
And the fact that they don't scare me. :)OH!!! That totally reminds me...another cute owl is the no sew felt owl plush on my tutorial list on the sidebar! If you would like the tutorial and the template click {HERE}!

Oh owls! They are SO fun and can spruce up a space with their oversized eyeballs and cute beak... in fact, I just bought a white ceramic one at Michael's yesterday for 3 dollars- holla! They are a bit oversaturated on Pinterest but I love love love them and can't get enough! :) Oh, and if that little girl jumped me in that mask I would probably push her over and run for my life... ha!
ReplyDeletePS: Love that plush owl! Hoot hoot!

THAT FABRIC IS SO CUTE! Thanks a lot. Now I'm going to have to buy some.
ReplyDeleteHow CUTE are those first owls?!? I second the scariness and utter creepiness of the second batch--YIKES! I LOVE your new table decor sooooo much. There is sonething about having books in home decor that is just classy. And the white owl and lamp are the perfect touch!! I need to pick your creative brain when we move to a bigger house one day and I feel like putting more effort into decorating! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the cutsie owls!! I have an entire Pinterest board devoted to the cuties! :) Not so much a fan of the mean looking ones though. Isn't that anthro owl to die for? Not the price though! HATE IT!
