Everyone has their own decorating "thing", right? For example, in past years, my mom, Jeri's "thing" was Fleur de Lis. However, in recent months, she's been transitioning to...BIRDS! Let me explain. They're not alive, nor were they ever (translation - they're not hanging on our walls stuffed with sawdust). She's started placing these cute little ceramic birds discretely around the house. They can be founds on little wall decor pieces, on window sills, on bathroom counters...even used as salt and pepper shakers. Okay, as I'm reading this back to myself, it sounds so tacky, but I can assure you it is not. Come on - we're talking about Jeri's Corner!

Needless to say, we have started a little bird collection of our own. In the two bathrooms, we have little white containers for cotton balls and Q-tips with birds on the lid. Recently, we bought a framed picture of a bird from Pottery Barn which I love. Jeri has even helped us out a little and gifted us with a fat fluffy bird that sits on our window still in the kitchen.

What's your decorating "thing"? We'd love to hear!

  1. Anthony and I have the CUTEST set of light bluish grey doves from Red Door. They have a selection of different ones so we were able to get two the coordinate but aren't the same pose. LOVE them in our living room window sill!

  3. I love birds...I have a few sitting around. I have a little iron bird that is really cute. They, also, look cute under a glass cloche, which is something I love.

  5. Terra Studios had the cutest glass bird collection. They are all color themed, representing a different meaning. You can find them here http://www.terrastudios.com/ but I've also seen them in the cracker barrel store!
