I am so proud of our pal Abbey, of Aesthetic Outburst, who is preparing to release her very first book! She sent us a copy and we love it. There are 21 crafts in the book. Projects range from kid-friendly to advanced level crafts. I had a few favorites, but this was one-
I was so excited to see that the bird tree that she let us borrow for our wedding turned into a project! Who doesn't want to make one of these?
I was so inspired by Abbey's book that I made my own version of the bird display with vintage soda bottles and black feather crows-
Thanks for the inspiration, Abbey! You can pre-order You Are Awesome: 21 Crafts To Make You Happy right here
. The release date is November 30,2012. xoxo, elsie
LOVE the bird trees - so fun!

Nice! I'm a sucker for cute crafts books :) Have a dog who likes to catch birds, so I'm not sure that particular project would go over too well in my house, but I like the aesthetic! Will definitely check it out.
