'Whipped cream bird' print, US$35, from Little Doodle's Etsy shop.
Snarky commenters on Apartment Therapy might say that Etsy bird prints are ubiquitous these days, but these delightfully quirky prints by London-based illustrator Katie Wilson are really something special. Her series of birds wearing incongruous sweet treats as headwear are particularly endearing. I'm also loving the fashionista birdies she posted on her blog recently. See if you can spot Karl, Jean-Paul, Vivienne, et al...
Great find, although I find the whipped cream one a little disturbing on some level that I can't quite put my finger on..!
Thanks for the comment, come back and visit anytime! :)
(BTW - your header is quite hypnotic, can't believe how long I just spent staring at it waiting to see which bird would move next!)
