Fitz and Floyd Roosters!

Hi everyone! I'm happy to be joining Barb at Bella Vista for the Rooster Party! Don't tell my porky friends, but I collected roosters and chickens long before pigs were a glimmer in my eye!
As I always say, there's plenty of room in the barnyard for all of the animals!
I found this runner at Marshall's many years ago, it's called Coq Du Village and is very colorful-just love it!

The wall hanging is from Marshalls (or TJ Maxx) too and one of my favorites, it has a lot of relief and texture. It hangs on the back of a metal wine rack in the kitchen and I like the splash of color!

What's this??? Earl take off those feathers!!! 
I should have known something was up when he asked for the duct tape!
 I'm telling you folks, the pigs get so jealous when the roosters take center stage...
Have a happy day:@)

PS- my milk glass give-away ends Tuesday! Enter HERE.

  1. I love the Fitz & Floyd roosters. It is hard to find others that match the depth of colour.
    I don't know what kind of rooster you plucked those feathers from but it must have been a real looker.
