A Quarter past Owl.

Just recently a little bird told me (or should I say owl) , that after a period of not being cool and hip, Owl's have returned. Apparently they are back in. But after seeing owls on everything from kids knickers to cheap and cheerful accessories in the two dollars shops, I suspect they reached saturation point a while ago and will never be as popular.

Even so, I would very much like to acquire these Owl and the Pussy cat Biscuits.I love the limited edition lunch tin, but I can only find the box available here. Discovered here.
I am still making a lot of Owl Clocks, and hopefully they will never be passe.Owls
I noticed top centre owlie (who is available at Craft Victoria) has made a cameo appearance here.
A lot of these guys eyes feature some doily adornment. Doilies are one of my weaknesses, and I have suitcases bulging with thrifted doilies to chop up.
I found some beautiful doily creations today, and you can check them out over at Find,Make, Do.
Nana's handiwork never looked so fancy!

  4. Owls will always be cool (though not if you asked them, they are too wise and humble to admit, or even know, how cool they are themselves).
