I have a Heron Problem

Apparently I have a huge addiction these days. I posted earlier about the Audubon print that I was having framed. I got it yesterday and it turned out so beautiful. I can't wait to hang it!
Please excuse the horrible iPhone picture!
I had it matted in a deep navy and the frame is a rich chocolate brown with gold accents. The frame colors match a round mirror that I have that will be going in my bedroom, so I think it will compliment it nicely.

We are moving to another office and I was asked to find some art to purchase to put in some of the various offices. I went over to the new office yesterday to see how the gradual move was progressing. Our official move day is Friday. My office is looking like a hot mess at the moment and still missing a few pieces of furniture.This picture doesn't do it justice because my office is quite large with three windows across the front, which I am excited about because I am going to put up a bird feeder right outside so I can do some bird watching. Ha!

But in my search to find some prints to hang in my office, I came across these:

I told you I have a huge heron problem! However, I tried to get away from my beloved birds to search for a few other prints for the other offices. I found some landscape paintings of St. Marks and the lighthouse, a few paintings of the Tallahassee Capital and Governor's Mansion and a few tiger pictures, since that is the "mascot" of our product that we manufacture. So I spent most of my day shopping online, which I won't complain about.

Funny thing about what I came across while looking for artwork. I went online to Kirkland's to see what kind of art they had and I came across this chest:

Does anyone else recognize this knock off? The moment I saw it, I was like - hey that's like the one at Pottery Barn!

The one at Kirkland's was only like $280 if I remember correctly. The one from Pottery Barn will set you back $700 big ones. So, if you like the look, then save yourself $420 and go grab the one from Kirkland's!

Now that I have admitted to my heron problem, I guess I will get back to work.
