Champ + Rosie Exclusively For My Owl Barn




Caroline Roach of Champ + Rosie created these amazingly cute Christmas gift tags exclusively for My Owl Barn's readers. Yippee!

Each sheet has five adorable owl tags in different shapes and sizes. Print the sheet on 100%, cut around the individual tags, and punch out the little circle at the top to run a string/twine/ribbon through and your tags are ready to go on your Christmas gifts. Thank you, Caroline.

Snowy Owls Christmas Decorations




Lauren Alane crafted these two beautiful snowy owl scenes for Christmas decorations inspired by the winter scene in an antique shop in Birmingham. The scenes are carefully crafted with birch branches with hint of snow, the banners that say Merry Christmas and needle felted owls. The scenes are on auction on ebay right now, ending later today. Lauren will soon be adding a few owls and ornaments to her store, so keep your eyes peeled!

Renée Seaman Treml






These are limited edition prints from Renée Treml's newest collection Nested. Each print is of her original illustrations using a technique known as Scratchboard. "For this method Renée starts with a board that has been coated with a thin layer of soft white clay, which is painted with black ink. The ink is then scratched away with a fine blade, revealing the white clay beneath." Her prints can be ordered through Udessi, an online art gallery. They do deliver worldwide!
