Bird nerd



Outside my new studio is a wee garden full of birds - so yesterday I studied my beloved vintage Birdbook to do some research for my next collagebird, I wanted to make a "spring-bird" instead of the owl - and then today I stumbled upon Bird Nerd via Decor8 - and could see that "my idea" had already been done perfectly - and I got a bit disillusioned! Does that happen to you too sometimes?

Certainly. But then, nobody can do it in just your way. So go for it.

I agree. I've learned that whatever I do will end up looking different anyway, since it's by me and not someone else. Just do it!
