Bird's Eye View

Many of us are familiar with the traditional birdhouses which are plain jane style homes to accommodate your local feathered friends. I know that personally, I am all about upgrading the home style so why not let the birds in on having a nice modern day home too? This is sure to not only add a stylish and quirky unconventional style to your own patio or yard but you can provide style for your favorite neighborhood sparrow. Even if you are not quite a fan of bringing all the birds to the comfort of your home this would also double as a nice stylish accent piece for the interior of your home! If all else fails this talented woodcrafter also has iconic style patio tables and wall panels for the inside of your beloved home. Check out these modern day birdhouse favorites created by nathandaniels below! 





Modern Day Romeo

I just came across this powerful image on Yahoo News spot today and I had instant goosebumps from the unintentional snapshot by a news photographer during the hockey riot in Vancouver. I mean, what woman wouldn't want to have her worries instantly removed by a simple and romantic gesture in the midst of chaos and terror brought on by an overdose of testosterone (over a sport none-the-less)? Guys, I would say review and take notes of this one man's quick thinking cause this is surely one way to win hearts over many! I'd say this is definitively  an iconic kiss that is up there with the August 14th, 1945 "V-J Day Times Square Sailor Kiss"...and they say "hopeless romantics" are a thing of the past...

Don't You Know?

There's nothing more fabulous than being clever and witty. I feel it breeds a sense of fun and laughter when used appropriately. Even more so being a Star Wars fan myself when I came across this set of solid sterling silver rings that have all of the above I was beyond ecstatic! I thought these would make the perfect wedding bands for any bride and groom who loves to add a touch of unique and thoughtful cunningness when solidifying their infinite union! The Han & Leia ring set is created by spiffingjewelry and at a very reasonable price of $100. So if you know you love it just say I do!
