Tweety?

I made this for a girlfriend of mine (along with the worm in the apple that I have posted here)for a Christmas gift. My son and I flew down to southern Ca, for Christmas and when we arrived one of my pieces of luggage did not get off the same plane we did. When I finally got my luggage back this was missing. At the time I was not that upset because I was just thankful that they “found” my luggage. I never did quite understand why the only thing missing was this “whatever it is” I kinda had in the back of my mind that it probably got broken and someone removed it rather than leave it in the luggage all busted up. Well I sure am glad I did not pitch a bitch about it, because today I started that wonderful and lovely job of spring cleaning LOL! and wrapped in tissue paper and then newspaper I found this. and the sad thing is I found it right where I had put it, for safe keeping until I was ready to put it in my suitcase! Surprisingly he stands up, but i am either going to hang chimes on him or now that it is spring perhaps I will make him a garden goody. Made out of pine meant for the wood stove.

Hi Allison,

I am glad that you “found” this piece. And thanks for the story behind it. We all tend to do things like this at times (although I seem to be experiencing it more often now). This is a nice piece and I am sure you will be able to put it to use in your home.

Thanks for the post.

The things that have been the hardest for me to find are those things that I intentionally placed in a particular spot for safekeeping!!
