{three little birds}

"three little birds"

maybe they were in inspired by the bob marley tune that was playing or the "sweeps" that keep eying up our chimney to build their nest for the second year in a row. however they came to be, these birds have much deeper history than just that -

our studio is tucked away in a little historic neighborhood in the northwest corner of atlanta. whittier mills village was a thriving cotton mill village from the 1920's until 1971. this week, my neighbor shared a treasure with me. she had been loaned, a book of of city maps from 1920. we couldn't stop studying the pages of our little secret corner of the city. i couldn't just let the pages lie there...from copies of that book, these happy little birds came to life. i can't wait to share this with everyone in the hood.
