work in progress – legs and beaks

3legsandbeaks.jpg

I think (hope) my website problems are sorted out and sorry again to everybody who was frustrated or got refunded and especially to the people in England and Australia and Japan (and other places) who got up at an awful hour to try to buy a bird. I will be adding more birds before the holiday but I can’t give you an exact time and date – if everybody shows up at the same time and starts refreshing I’m afraid It will crash again.

  1. Ugh. I’m so sorry about your website headaches.

    I wanted to say that I love all your “in progress” shots. They make me imagine you as a Victorian lady, dressed to the nines working in an enchanted room off the side of her parlour, which you must enter via a series of velvet curtains. And, when you leave the room, your little creations move about and have little adventures.

    All your tiny bowls and plates and spoons and surfaces bring such a wonderful magic to all of your work.

  2. Hi, I have loved your birds (like a lot of other people) from afar and for a long time – they are so wonderful. I didn’t try to purchase one on Monday as I knew it would be super popular and I would have been sad to miss out – I will try in the future though (so happy there was a ‘Rebecca’ in the last flock!). But I just wanted to say I’m sorry to hear about your website troubles and at the very least it’s kind of a compliment that your site crashed as it means so many people love your work! Happy festive season for you and all your beautiful birds Ann ox

  3. That’s a nice problem to have… demand being so high it crashes your site. 🙂 I feel so lucky I had two custom birds for my wedding, and I’m keeping them out and on display forever!!

  4. Wonderful photo!
    Just wanted to drop you a brief note to tell you that my mom still dotes on her little bird that she received from you almost a year ago (for her birthday).
    she loves her to pieces…

    Your birds are wonderful! I just saw one for the first time on someone else’s blog and I am in love! I am going to watch for one that would suit my mom (probably floral) in the future! Thanks for being so inspiring!
    Happy New Year! karen b…
