handmade lovelies

at heron's baby shower we were blown away by our friends' expressions of love for us through the giving of handmade gifts. heron was given homemade clothes, bibs, and blankets, a beautiful quilt, and even a portable puppet theatre! this year for her birthday some friends made some beautiful little treasures for her, too, so i wanted to share them here.

sarah and ray made this book for heron. it is filled with pictures they took of a great blue heron they saw every day at the lake in japan. sarah wrote a story to accompany the pictures. it is beautiful!


cara gave heron this little blue rocking chair that she painted, decoupaged, & cushioned. isn't it sweet?
