Feathered Bird Ornament Instructions

To make this graceful bird, cut a pleasing bird shape from 2 layers of felt. On one of the shapes, glue down an assortment of tail and comb feathers, plus 2 toothpicks for legs. Then spread glue on the same wrong side and place the other bird shape on top and finger-press. Let glue dry. Add a googly eye or a dark bead for the eye. Using the tip of a needle, find the place on the bird's back where the hanger should go, where the shape would be balanced and hang evenly, then attach. Of course, you could glue feathers on to the bird's entire body or dress it up with beads.
