So much in life is luck and timing. Just like any good day at The Orleans Gift House. You never know what you'll find. Treasures await -- and things that will surprise you, delight you, and make you laugh.Like this fantastically painted birdhouse. It arrived last May, not long after The Gift House opened. It sat on a shelf for two hours -- nobody else seemed to notice it but me. I brought it home, cleaned it up a bit, and gave it to my husband for Father's Day.
