Home is where you are.

Just finished this little assemblage. I found the wood box at St Vinnie's the other day and knew it could be something great. The theme is Home is where you are. In the bottom heart I used a technique from Jane Ann Wynn's book Altered Curiositites. Holy crap if you haven't seen that book yet you need to go and get it.
For this part I used a little nest I found on one of my walks.
And for this one I fashioned a little nest out of wire.
It was fun..but bad news...while I was typing my sleeve caught it and it fell on the floor and the bottom egg broke. I guess it will be eggs for supper tonight.
