Spring is finally here and what a better way to start the season, than with the Barcelona Bird Feeder for our feathered friends!
The Barcelona Bird feeder brings a unique, stylish and sculptured look to your yard. The designer, Monique Engelund got the inspiration from the famous Barcelona Pavilion, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1929. It’s made of durable acacia wood from sustainable European forests. The feeding table is located under the roof, while the bird bath sits out in the open and is removable for easy cleaning. The bird feeder comes with two removable spikes to secure the bird feed or maybe an apple for that special treat.

Everyone remembers their first toy. I had a wooden car. Playsam has taken that idea and revived it. They have kept that tradition alive with the Streamliner Classic. Its simple design, clean lines and bold use of colors, make Playsam a classic for both the young and old. We love their Executive line of pens for that sophisticated choice. Or maybe you just want to take off into space on a Rocket. And for that wedding or christening, the gift of the year everyone will be talking about. There is something for every occasion.
