Owl Always Love You


Owl Always Love You Wreath Set

Many of us have a special someone in life who has been watching over us from the time we were small. People who guide us, make us feel safe, and show us how to make the right decisions. Sometimes they don't even realize they're doing it. I'm sure my aunt Robin doesn't know how much it taught me when she stuck by my Dad through hard times. And I'm sure my Mom's family wouldn't realize how much all of those family dinners made me feel safe and became a building block of who I am today and how I treat those I love.

I have so many examples of how the people around me as a child taught me how to be.

For some lucky people, they get to grow as an example of the old proverb "it takes a village to raise a child". If I were truly representing my own childhood with this set of owl wreaths, I would need a circle of Big Owls and a whole wall to hold them. I was a very very lucky child, surrounded by parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents who all played an active role in making sure I was happy and healthy and learning the right things about the world.

Many home cooked meals, conversations, special moments and happy memories come to mind when I think back over my younger years. I am who I am because of every person who took the time to help me grow. I was inspired by them when making this set of owl wreaths. For the person who ends up with these wreaths, the Big Owl could be a mother, father, aunt, grandmother or some other wonderful bird in the Little Owl's life. But for me, it represents all of those people.
