Flamingo Mingle

June 1, 2012 · Comments { 7 }

I just love this print, Flamingo Mingle by Nancy Ramirez and have seen it all over Pinterest. It had me searching for other home décor items featuring these famous pink birds with hooked black bills.

Did you know that standing on one leg really is a flamingos most comfortable resting position? Just a fun flamingo fact!

Happy Friday!
