Crows.
My husband hunts crows.
They are smart little devils. And mean, too. But, alas, they have found their way into our home (and you haven't even seen the stuffed ones yet!).
The crow puzzle is Amish made. It was my Christmas gift to him one year... but he had to put it together.
I'm not big on "grubby" candles, but the smaller one had a crow on it... 'nough said.
I'm trying to stay away from the primitive look and the country look, but there's no getting around that when your main theme is crows.
If you're admiring our paneling... well, that's one project we just haven't tackled yet. This is an old house... with old fixtures and old carpet and old paneling. Colored paneling in each room to match the colored carpet. Boy, aren't we lucky? This stuff isn't too bad, at least it's neutral. Same with our master bedroom. But the blue wood grain paneling to match the blue carpet and the green wood grain paneling to match the green carpet... well, let's just say... those projects can't come too soon!
I purchased the pie safe in California when I lived there. It has literally traveled across the country with me. It has a matching 6-foot tall floor clock. The pie safe used to house our set of china, growing collection of Polish pottery, and a few other dishes. I am currently re-working it with crocks, cookbooks, and a few other things which have not been discovered yet.
