🐦 Bird lovers, this one’s for you.

We’ve noticed that birders tend to find their way to Blue Cottage.

Maybe it’s because bird people are good at spotting special things.

If you haven’t wandered through lately, come take a look. There’s a good chance you’ll find a bird—or two—you’ll want to take home.

💌 Sometimes the card is the gift.

Maybe it’s for a birthday, a graduation, a wedding, Father’s Day, or maybe it’s just because someone crossed your mind.

A good card says what we don’t always know how to say ourselves.

Whether you’re celebrating something big or just letting someone know you’re thinking of them, we’ve got cards for that.

Stop in and find one that feels like it was made for the person you’re sending it to. 💞

We recently visited the glass design studio of Maxine Davis. Maxine is a retired social worker and psychologist. Maxine works with fused glass to create unique designs and scenes. Her work includes panels (glass canvases), bowls, plates, jewelry, clocks, switch plates, k***s and glass bottles transformed into dishes. Her work ranges from to the abstract to whimsical, and everything in between.

The images show some of her many designs, some of the glass pieces she works with, including a large multicolored glass panel, and the kiln she uses to create her fused glass art.
