Benjamin & Ruth

I just listed a new pair of Love Birds in my Etsy shop tonight: Benjamin and Ruth. I am completely in love with them! Is it okay for me to say that about something I made? I ought to be in love with my creation, right?  Well, either way, I am going to have a hard time parting with these two, but I am also super excited for someone to snatch them up and love them as much as I do (and hopefully let them perch atop a wedding cake too!)

These have easily become my favorite birds out of all the birds I have made. AND little Ruth here is Love Bird No.100!! I kind of can't believe I have already made one hundred of these! But I am ready to make a hundred more! In celebration of the hundredth bird, there will be a little secret surprise stuck in the box for the lucky customer :)

But for tonight, Benjamin and Ruth are sitting on the mantel in my living room, ready to ship out to a wedding or anniversary or birthday or a just-because party. I will savor every last moment I have to gaze at them. Have I gushed too much about these? Yes, this is a bit ridiculous, isn't it? Ah well...
