Just one look at “George the Silly Sparrow” by Etsy shop, Isabell’s Umbrella and I want to swoop him up and keep him safe in my child’s room for a rainy day.
“George loves to make people smile – it is what he does best. Based off of one of my favorite illustrations, this little guy will brighten any space. George is perfect at spreading happiness” – Ashley . Created by hand with felt, George measures approx. 2.5″ and is enclosed in a wonderful shadow box frame (5.5″ off-white). The frame can stand by itself or hang on a wall (including hardware).
Graphic Designer by day and doodler by night, owner Ashley Giessing has created a line of stationary with the magic to clear the clouds on a rainy day and revitalize the lost art of handwritten correspondence. We wholeheartedly agree with Ashley when she says “There is nothing that means more to me than a kind, heartfelt, handwritten note from someone I love”. Here’s a peek into her sweet stationary designs.
To learn out more about Ashley’s recent work, check out her blog. To make Silly George the Sparrow a part of your life and room decor…

I visit a lot of sites and blogs and normally they fail to deliver, but this one is different. It's the real deal! Thank you, I am very grateful to you and it has helped me, particularly the post - Art That Makes You Smile | Project Nursery. Mary Jane

I adore the Herold the Faux Prince print.
I used to write to my best friend all the time and still have those letters but they've fallen wayside because of e-mail.
