New Start - the Pursuit of Happiness

Hi, it's been a while since I last blogged but I've made a promise to keep it updated more often. There have been alot of changes in my life the past year. Sooo, I'm making a list of changes and updating my blog as well as creating is one of them. Afterall, as they say happiness is s choice so I am choosing to be happy and count my blessings. I've been busy adding new items to my Etsy Shop. Besides birdhouses, I have been working on picture frames, welcome slates for the fall and Halloween, as well as more ornaments.
Making an effort to network more with others is proving to be a positive thing Here are a few new items that I have recently listed.I hope you enjoy them!

New Original Birdhouses for Spring!!

It's been a busy year with a few family members serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Things have finally started to settle down and I have been very busy creating new birdhouses for my shop. I've also added some decorative indoor items as well, so here is a mini-Etsy Preview for you!

Catching Up!

Spring is finally on it's way and I've just realized how LONG it has been since I updated my blog. Alot has happened, some good - some not so good but as the saying goes, "Time heals all wounds".
I have been busy spring cleaning, and creating new birdhouses and art work for my etsy shop. Visit me at www.rachaelsgarden.etsy.com

I have been SO busy working and adding new birdhouses to my EtsyShop. I am also so excited to be able to show and sell my work at Artist Row in Salem, MA. Come by and check out all the new designs - you will never find two alike! Most of my birdhouses are made with recycled materials. They are quickly becoming collectors items. I LOVE my work and love to share it with others!

Country Birdhouse Just Added

I have been so busy creating these past few days - debating whether I should be out doing the yard, cleaning the house, or doing what I love most - so I picked the latter!

I love birdhouses and here is my newest - just finished up today!

Sometimes, I think I just want to do a plain one, but I get so caught up in the detail - I think it is what makes each one unique! Hope you love it!

Bird Houses

I decided to actually start working on y blog today! I've been really busy creating and listing new items for the spring. Check out my new collection of birdhouses! Each one is original unique. They are a lot of work, but well worth the effort that goes into them.

These make a wonderful Mother's Day gift and are also very educational!
