little birdie ornaments
We were so excited to find this idea from Living the Swell Life to make these darling birdie ornaments! We cut out our own similar pattern on thin chipboard and used sheet music patterned paper from October Afternoon (instead of decoupaging small pieces of real sheet music). But we did use Mod Podge! We also tried our gold shimmer Mod Podge which is gorgeous. it gives it a nice gold shimmer that is very subtle but pretty. We also added a small jingle ball on a jump ring for extra cuteness. These make great ornaments or gift tags!

Oh, how I wish I had seen this earlier! How cute are these birds you made! I just made a couple out of felt and framed them to hang for Christmas. Yours are so very much cuter! I just may have to change the ones I did!
ReplyDeleteI love these!!! They are perfect for your blog....they match your little logo bird! Great job! I love all the different ways you did the wings.
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love some little birdies!
ReplyDeleteSo, so cute!! This would be so perfect for my tree in my formal living room! Thanks so much for the inspiration. I am filing this away at thecraftersfilebox.com.
ReplyDeleteCaa-uute! Love the shimmer - people rarely use it! I wish I could post these but I don't have a slot until AFTER the 25th! Waaahh
ReplyDeleteI love that you used sheet music! I'm a cellist, and this is perfect!
ReplyDeleteThese little birdies are so pretty and such a simple idea! Thanks for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the sheet music as the body and especially love the button decorations.
