Here's a few glimpses into what's in store for our customers next week!

Birds with long feather tails- so many ways to use them- on trees, on sconces, packages, chandeliers


 
Our working birdcage clock- so pretty as a centerpiece or on a buffet! We have used one of our

The adorable menu trays are actually bed trays with legs!

 
This area will be Marie Antoinette's pastry shop- full of the cutest pastry ornaments and decorations!
