For a long time I have found all things owls to be absolutely adorable.  I love the plump, round bodies and the big, wide eyes.  The multitude of bright colors that these items tend to come in is another reason why I find owls items so adorable and cutesy.  I didn't really start buying owls until I started working at the school I teach at a couple of years ago.  Owls are our mascot, so my owl obsession grew and I started buying owl things because I now I had a reason too!  I have a half dozen owl necklaces that I wear all time to work.  My sister recently bought me an owl pin from the Shop of Worldly Delights on esty.  I also have owl containers in my classroom and a cute owl bowl in my bedroom that I display things in. 
Now, I have taken up crafts that involve owls.  I have made a few owl pins of my own and and owl pillow.  I have several more owl crafts planned that I will have to take pictures of once they are complete to show you guys.  So, are you like me and find the owls absolutely unresistable or does another adorable animal steal the show in your life?

Who Gives a Hoot?

I have an immense fascination with owls. I think they belong on anything and everything from lamps to pillows, shirts to necklaces, purses to rings, and so on. I find owl jewelery very charming. Owls have been used to symbolize certain things. I am sure most of us are aware of owls being a symbol for wisdom, because a lot of us have heard the saying, "Wise as an owl" before. Owls are nocturnal creatures so they have been used to symbolize mystery and secrets. Below are a couple outfits that I put together involving owls.
