Caracteristics:
A package containing 2 sheets with
14 swallows in 4 different sizes. The instructions
are simple: start by removing the transparent protective film. Then, carefully
picking a swallow by a wingtip, stick on any even, clean surface (cupboards,
walls, windows, etc). Finally, smooth with a cloth, pressing down in order to
remove air bubbles.
The swallow is one of the most
common birds in Portugal, found not only in the sky but also stylized in
pottery and ceramics, hanging from balconies or applied on facades. During the
20th century the swallow became a popular favourite, a true national icon and
the symbol of the Portuguese home. And this could be due to their brave and
skilful nature, both itinerant and faithful, returning to the same nest year
after year. In a lively and romantic way, they seem to mirror the character of
the Portuguese people.
The swallow stickers give this
popular tradition a contemporary update. They can be effortlessly glued (and
unglued) to interior and exterior walls. Plus, they are available in different
sizes, allowing for personal taste and creativity to get involved in the
process. An exclusive A Vida Portuguesa.
