I have always been fascinated by bird nests. My Nana taught me at a very young age all about the different kinds of birds and their nests. We would walk around her property and she would find all these lovely bird nests, some occupied and some not. I remember the very first robin nest I found. I was walking around with her and I spied the robin flying along and then disappearing into a tree and then almost as quickly fly out. I told Nana about it and she said well lets have a look. We carefully pulled back the branches of the tree and lo and behold there was a nest with 4 lovely blue eggs in it!! I was so excited I almost toppled the eggs out of the nest! She pulled me aside gently and explained that I should only look at the eggs and enjoy them with my eyes not my hands. It intrigues me how these little birds find bits of mud, hair, straw, grass, etc. and weave these intricate nests-works of art actually! Over the years I have collected abandoned birds nest of all kinds. I am sorry to say they did not fare well when we moved from NJ to NC. Most were destroyed. Once we get settled in our house next month, I will be starting a new collection of them. Hopefully I will be able to share them with my grandson that is due in July when he gets older. All these pictures I found on google.com. What a beautiful nest tucked in the branches of a tree. This is one of my favorite pictures I found online. Robin Nest This is a bluebirds nest with eggs. I love the coloring of their eggs almost as much as a robins. This is a cardinals nest. How dull colored the eggs are compared to the beautiful coloring the cardinals have. I am sure the eggs are colored this way so they blend into the nest. This is a painted nest I found online-really pretty! Just remember if you are going to start a collection of nests, make sure the nests have been abandoned-we wouldn't want to take someones home! Now I sound like my Nana!!

This Turquoise blue bling bouquet is approx. 11" (finished size) in diameter and approx 12” tall. It is very striking and makes a beautiful Bridal bouquet, Bridesmaid's bouquet, Quinceanera and Sweet 16 bouquet - especially for beach, summer and destination weddings. The handle is lace and trimmed in diamond wrap as well as two "diamond" gems. The bouquet travels well and is especially wonderful if you are having a destination wedding, or if your pictures will be taken before or after the event. Best of all the bouquet is allergy free and makes a beautiful keepsake. The flowers will always look fresh. If the roses get a little crushed in transit, stand it up in a sturdy glass or vase and lift the petals up a bit with your finger - then leave alone. They will go back to their original shape. The last few pictures show other bouquets with this same theme. Matching bouquets are listed: 9", 9" with shells, and 7" trimmed in lace. Sold separately. This bouquet is available for immediate shipment. All bouquets are sent Priority Mail which usually takes between 1-4 business days. If you need to have your packages signed for, there is a Post Office fee of $3.95 for this service. Please note this request in the “Notes” section when you order.
