I like the wreath with the birdy in the centre. ....:).... We have several bird ornaments, unfortunately, we're in the process of moving, so our decor will be quite limited this year. .. Might sneak something out, at least to brighten up a window or two, and the door, and some cookies... Hate to disappoint Santa you know, especially his reindeer. ...........lol

Cute! I think im gonna get a Charlie brown Christmas tree. I don't think a fake one is a good idea. My fids destroyed my aloe plant so I'm afraid of what they'll do to a tree and all the lights and ornaments :(

michael: Yeah, you could sneak a decoration or two out!!

bookworm: That's why I'm so glad Mika isn't a chewer! :rotfl Raptor isn't much of one either, except with certain toy materials... Saru is a chewer but not to the point where he chews non-toy items.

CompassionAk: Yeah, as soon as we saw the wrapping paper we HAD to have it!! OWLS!! I'll definitely post pics... I already know what my gifts are though because the bf made me choose them. :rotfl

jk1944: Thanks!!

diljaa: I got them at Target for $4 each!! I wish they had one more style because I felt bad leaving out FISH, our betta (though he does have a gift)...

I have lots of birdy ornaments, but those are really all I have found as far as bird holiday decorations.

I hear ya! I actually have a nice light green mini Xmas stocking that has a bird on it... it's from the Martha Stewart collection years back and I had bought it as Mika's stocking before. But as far as anything else "bird" holiday related, it's far and few in between.

Oh, I LOVE that little bird ornament! It's so cute -- you can totally use that year round to decorate :)

A few years back I was given a link to someone who makes custom parrot stockings. They were REALLY cute! They did all sorts of customizations, which was nice for people with mutations of certain species or those with more uncommon parrots. Of course, I can't find the link now... Ergh!

Anyhoodle, you're artistic and crafty! Why not make your own betta stocking? You could make one out of felt and yarn :)
