Do you love quick and easy projects that use items you already have lying around your house?
I am the exact same way, and thisyarn bird craftfits the bill perfectly!
Dont be fooled by how simple it is, though.
When you are all finished making this, you will have a beautiful and elegant yarn bird.
I cant wait for you to see how simple this project is!
Gather up your supplies and lets make a lovely yarn bird!
Step 2.Next, get your scissors because its time to cut!
You will cut little slits all around your birds body.
This is where the yarn will be placed.
Step 3.Choose your first color of yarn.
Starting from the tail, insert the end of your yarn into one of the slits.
Thread it through so that the yarn is secure.
Now, wrap the yarn around the birds body.
Step 4.Pick a different color of yarn and do the same thing.
you’re able to use each color for as much of the birds body as you would like.
The sections can be big or small, or you could vary the sizes.
Step 5.Continue to wrap the yarn as many times as you prefer to form a section.
Step 7.Keep wrapping your bird with the yarn, switching colors as you go.
Step 8.Soon, your entire bird will be wrapped from tail to head.
Step 9.Now, its time to get your black marker again, along with the card stock.
Draw a beak and a wing, and then cut them out using your scissors.
Step 10.We are getting close to the end!
These are the finishing touches.
Grab your hot glue gun and start to glue on your birds features.
Step 12.It is time to add legs to your birds body.
Cut some wooden sticks into whatever length you prefer.
Next, get your glue gun again and glue the legs onto the back of your birds body.
Get a larger piece of wooden stick to serve as a branch.
Step 13.We are all finished!
Now, you have an adorable yarn bird to display wherever you would like!
I love to use them as window decor during the spring season.
you might also use them as gift wrap toppers or add them to greeting cards.
If you are a gardener, they would also look wonderful in or around your garden.
You could even stand them up in your potted plants!
