Stocking up on ... nests!

There is so much to share, I don't know where to start! So, I'll start here, with some images of some nests I had recently made.

The shops where these are being sold have been out of the nests for some time now, but I was just not able to keep up with the demand during this last semester in school. (I'll share more about all that in a future blog post).

Now, that I have a break between semesters, the stores are stocked up and I have a dozen or so extra nests, which I will be listing in my Etsy shop this weekend. Here's a peek...





After two years, I am still struggling to find just the right lighting conditions to photograph these nests. If the light is bright, it shows the detail but makes them look washed out, however, of course if the light is dim it's hard to see what you are looking at! So, anyway, here they are... if you already have one or two of these, you already know the pictures do no justice to the way they are in person. If not, then you'll have to get one and see for yourself how cute they really are!  ;o)

Thanks for stopping by! Stay tuned for some images of a couple of beautiful homemade Christmas gifts I had received this year.

  1. That's great news that the shop sold out of your beautiful little nests and that you now have had time to catch up and make more :) I have one of my own and they are just amazing!
    Try taking your photos outside using macro on your camera and without a flash. Even inside if you have a good light turn the flash off, you can always lighten the photos or brighten them in PS :)
