The Flock Is Out

There are different words on the sides of the birds.
I am having a wonderful time in my studio. While the winter is keeping most of us inside it is nice to have clay between my fingers. I seem to have problems stopping making these birds.

But then again, why should I stop when I enjoy it that much.

They are mostly meant for gifts. I am planning to add wire and a beautiful ribbons to them.

They can also be used as pendants. I print words on them to make them more personal and with a little interesting effect on them.

Different words on both sides are suppose to give a meaning beyond the words them selves.

In a few weeks my blog is five years old. And two birds will be up for a giveaway.

And not to be afraid - I am knitting as well. A day without knitting is a strange day. But one can never go wrong with spreading the wings and get another perspective in clay...

Use what talents you possess: The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best
Henry van Dyke

Also made a gray bird with the words grow strong.

  6. Så flotte de er. Gavene kommer garantert til å bli satt pris på. Ser dem for meg i en uro, - du vet en sånn som henger fra taket på terrassen og lever med vinden. Blikkfang er de uansett. :)

  7. Your birds are lovely!!! They have great messages, love them. (and I think you are making the eyes of the birds very 'alive and tender')
    I found my wings a while ago, and now I can fly. It is great to fly, I hope everybody is able to find creative wings in his or her life, I truly do.
    (my book will not be translated in English for the moment, but maybe if it sells good :) )
    Wish you a wonderfull Sunday evening.
