Materials
Use this template to trace onto your book pages creating the bird shape you will cut out;
Cut out as many birds as you wish, and then set them aside;
Now, you will use your colored craft paper and cut out a small heart and a small beak for each bird that you created;
Once all of the birds, beaks, and hearts have been cut out, you will begin assembling your birds;
First, peel the sticky back off of the heart, or use craft glue, to attach the heart upside down on the bird to look like wings as shown;
Next, you will add the beak to the top front of the bird, along with a small black dot for the eye;
The final step is to thread the twine through the hole, or tape/glue to the upper back of the bird for hanging.
Make these in various sizes to create bird families to decorate with around the house!
