Chewie is now home

If you check out our first posting titled “Chewie” you can learn about this wonderful dog who passed away several years ago. We showed “Chewie” many times at our markets, unfortunately he fell off a table a few years ago at one of our markets and had to be completely rebuilt.

A few weeks ago we took him out  to the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia and he now hangs in Rene & Laurel’s home over looking the ocean.  As “Chewie” was their dog for many years they are more than pleased that he will now be with them in stained glass for years to come. Enjoy

Poppy’s Bird House 2013

Filed under Birds, Canadiana, Festive, Gifts, Sun Catchers, Wildlife by on May 19, 2014 at 5:30 pm {no comments}

For our oldest granddaughter Poppy’s 1st Christmas we obtained this Wren/Nuthatch bird house from The Wild Bird Store in Calgary and attached the small stained glass poppy. Poppy’s mom and dad have a large treed back yard in Calgary with lots of many varieties of birds, bird feeders and bird houses. As of last report it appeared that chickadees were moving in/or just helping themselves to nesting material already deposited there. It will be interesting to see who gets to use it.
