SVG Attic’s First Challenge – My Tiki Hut Birdhouse

As soon as she announced it on her Facebook page, I had an idea bouncing around of how I could use that wonderful coconut bra.  I wanted someone to wear it!  I was asked to put it on someone other than myself *coughJessicacough*, so why not a chubby little birdy.  If you notice, she is rather chubby, so I had to put some extension panels in her grass skirt. (hehe, just like her momma)

I guess I didn’t realize I have a bird thing.  I don’t like the animal so much that I want them in my house or around my head.  But, decorating with them I seem to do a lot.  I “ohhh” and “ahhh” at every decor item with them, be it a picture, ceramics, antique birdcages or blog templates (hmmm) .  I even went so far years ago to grace every family member with a hand-painted, by me, glass bottle with birds and birdhouses.  Craft painting – another one of my started and failed crafts.  Anyone want to buy a tubful of Plaid paint?

Anyway, I liked the idea of a little Tiki hut.  Then it morphed into a birdhouse.  How about a Tiki birdhouse complete with a real grass roof?  Hey, this is were all the cool birds hang out to get some ice-cold refreshing Lemonade!

Update:  I won second place!!!  If Thienly hadn’t enter…harumpf…she was just too good!  Actually I’m kidding.  Well, not kidding about her being good. 🙂 I was just glad to be a part of Jessica’s first challenge and be a winner with two very talented people.  Kasi and Thienly’s step cards were amazing!
