The perfect gift for intention setting

I purchased this gift for a close friend & family member who's constantly focused on setting intentions and practicing self affirmations. Upon opening, her face lit up and asked everyone in the family to step up and blindly choose a bird to set their intention for the next day. It was a beautiful bonding moment and the perfect gift. The pieces themselves are beautifully glazed, brightly colored, and a dense ceramic. #sweepstakes

I've found these to be a super helpful divination tool!

I have created 7 general advice categories for the birds, as a way to help guide my day. Like: Rest, Take action, surrender, give back etc. Each day I look at the assortment of birds and based on intuition I choose a color. I then put all birdies into a hat and take them out random to place next to one of the seven Daily Directives. Wherever my color lands for the day, that's what I do!

My mom loves it

Got this for Mother's Day and she absolutely loves it! She puts it on the windowsill next to her bird feeder, so it has become a beautiful weekly ritual for her. Beautifully executed from the painting and packaging. #sweepstakes

Recipient Loved These!

Exactly what I was hoping - gave to my mom for Mother's Day. She loves them so much that she even travels with them. Very cute and colorful. Seemed sturdy when I held them out of the box too. Great gift for the person who has everything!

I love myGuide Birds

I have seen these in the Uncommon Goods catalogs for quite some time now. I always thought how neat they were. So I decided to buy them for myself! I think they are a few calming moments in the day as I read about which Guide Bird I've chosen. They are beautiful and colorful and I love them!
