I did a little crafting this past weekend after I changed our bed linens.
I decided it was time to take down the evergreen wreath that was in the bathroom as it may be a bad luck charm with all the snow as of late.
I replaced it with a grapevine wreath and wanted to add a little something to it.
I already made a flag style bunting in our main floor bathroom update and thought because of my obsession with birds maybe they might look kinda cute.
So.....
I got over my previous glue gun-itis and made some bird bunting.
i added it with a felt moss green line string for some colour
Here's how I did it:
I found some nice birds by searching for "cutout bird" on the world wide web. lol
I made them bigger with my printer by doing a print preview and scale to 150%(they were really tiny)
I cut out the birds.
I glued book pages to cardstock for stiffness. [It seems everyone is using sheet music for these kind of things, and even though I was an avid piano player, i went rogue and used an old dictionary instead]
I traced the birds onto the book page/cardstock and cut them out.
I hot glued the felt and birds together.
TA DA!
gosh, i am officially crazy for boxwood. yell it from the rooftops.
i have a green thumb but when it gets to be outdoor season, between the indoor plants and outdoors plants i feel like the watering can is an extension of my arm. these babies are helping with that carpal tunnel .
including the new bird banner, there are 10 birds just in this bathroom. time to get out the bird seed.
Have a great day,
Meg
