The 12 Days of Giftmas: Day 4 - Artistic Birds Calling
On the:
First Day of Giftmas, my True Love gave to me: a Partridge (at least jewelry by a designer named Partridge) in a Jewelry Tree
Second Day of Giftmas: two Turtle Doves of Love
Third Day: three Delicious French Hens
Today, the Fourth Day of Giftmas, my True Love commissioned for me: a painting of Four Calling Birds. Plus, for a less pricey gift, we also found a "Four Calling Birds" artsy decorative handmade tea towel.
