I just wanted to let all of my faithful blogger friends (three of you?) know that Glitter Goods will now be an offspring of my new site, Birds and Branches. I hadn't blogged in months, I had nothing glittery to say. Glitter Goods was born during the holiday season when I was making vintage inspired Christmas ornaments. Needless to say my crafty endeavors have lead me down several different paths and (gasp) I hadn't used glitter in any of them.What is Birds and Branches? I don't really know. I am totally enamored with anything bird and anything vintage, as always. I think it started when I fell in love with some Amy Butler fabric that I found at Crafty Planet. Just about the time that I started incorporating feathers, nests and eggs into my artwork, a new little tweeter came to make his home in the lilac bushes just along our driveway. His song was like nothing I had ever heard before - a mixture of notes, highs and lows, sometimes piercing, sometimes quite irritating. After some research, we found out that it was a cat bird. A cat bird mimics the sound of other birds. The other day I heard him copying the sound of our squeaky garage door.
So, my conclusion is...Birds and Branches was meant to be.
I will most likely leave Glitter Goods up for a while. I can't bring myself to delete it entirely. And what about those yummy recipes that I never wrote down.
