French Coop

I've been thinking about making a home for a few chickens to live out by our garden and horses. They are great to keep flies and ticks away, which abound in our land that's full of trees and right across the road from the lake.





Everything about this sweet chicken hut that was made by Heather Bullard is perfect. What lucky chickens! I love the Frenchy feel to it, and the great features that make it easier to collect eggs and for storage.



All of the little features to this Chicken house, show all of the thought and time put into the design of this chicken coop!

Over on Heather Bullards blog, she has directions as well as more pictures!

I think it's great that so many people have started to raise their own chickens, whether in rural areas or closer to the city's. Such a great way to bring more "natural" into your kitchen as well as getting out to enjoy nature.

Now, we can't forget the chickens...

I think the White Silkie Bantams are the cutest!

Silverlining Etsy Shop - Giveaway and Review!

Silverlining is a store on Etsy that has unique and beautiful jewelry. Maria kindly sent me the Oui Frenchy necklace below:



I am very pleased with it! It is quite beautiful and I love wearing a necklace inspired by France! I have worn it with the dress that I made and it looks quite nice together! The necklace is a nice length - not too short, but at the same time not too long. It would also be cute layered with a few other necklaces - stocking stuffer anyone?

Here are a few of my other favorite pieces from her shop:


Eiffel Tower
