Gave this to Mom for Christmas, she is a bird nut and they have 12 birdhouses in the trees around the house. I bought this watercolor kit last spring and as I was working on it, realized that the birds were missing. Contacted the company and they sent the birds out ASAP. Even told me to continue with the wallhanging, even do the FM. Add the birds on after. I think it gave a 3D affect because of the late addition of the birds.
I think she liked it!
