~~~~~~~SWEET VINTAGE BABY SHOES~~~~~~ and a Nest To Make You Smile

 
~VINTAGE HIGH-TOP BABY SHOES~

While trying to find more vintage baby shoes for new project makeovers I snagged two pairs of antique button-up-the side high-top shoes recently on eBay!  These little beauties are getting harder and harder to find and the prices for them are generally out of site!  Imagine my delight when I stumbled on two Buy-It-Now offerings for a cra-ra-zeeee low price!!!
I could hardly contain my joy!

Both pairs are in wonderful condition!  The shoes are at least 100 years old so I was shocked to find that although they were obviously worn, they were completely damage free!
  
I feel a transformation coming on!
 ~WHAT IS THIS?~

This afternoon I went out into my hubby's workshop and when I closed the door something flew near my face.  I nearly jumped out of my skin before I realized it was a little Wren (?).  It had perched itself upon a cross beam on the ceiling and started chirping away at me non-stop...
I honestly felt like I was getting chewed-out or something!!!

I pretty much knew I'd disturbed the little bird and when I looked around I saw a nest had been made inside my hubby's spare garden hoses...  What a strange spot!  I'm not even sure how the birdy got in!!!  Of course I had to run back inside and grab my camera!  I wasn't sure any baby eggs were inside because I couldn't see that deep!

So...I angled up camera up high (and from a distance) and sure enough, two little bitty eggs can be seen deep in the center of the nest. 
 
~HOW SWEET IS THIS?~

Truthfully, I'm not happy about the nest being made where it was made, but it's there for the long-haul.  I don't have the heart to disturb it, nor will my Mr. AGPMan!

I'll keep you posted on the hatching! :)

Hope you've had an awesome day!

Love to you...
