She has all the directions on her post, but basically you paint styrofoam shapes, glue them together, make wings and a tail with accordian folded crepe paper streamers, use little black brads for eyes, card stock for beaks, and decorate them with whatever your heart desires.
This was such a fun craft and I think they turned out pretty cute.

And speaking of birdies, when the mister and I were out walking the other day we saw two pairs of robins splashing in a puddle! You know what that means, SPRING is just around the corner!

THOSE ARE REALLY CUTE! GOOD JOB TOO, THEY HAVE THE SWEETEST LITTLE FACES! NO ROBINS HERE...IT'LL BE MAY BEFORE WE GET SPRING! COME SAY HI :D
Can you say ADORABLE...I'm going to have to make some of these little birdies! Great post.
Hi Darling Mimi Sue!
These are totally, completely adorable! They make me feel happy in my heart!
Great job! Hope you are well!
love, kelee
Bravo Mimi! These are the cutest birds! I love the one picture where it looks like the red birdie is whispering into the ear of the pink birdie...sweet nothings? I love the way you've embellished with pearls and flowers. E will be so excited to see these...you've done her proud. For the first time, we've been seeing robins off and on all winter this year. I just read that not all of them migrate. Crazy robins!

Of course you had to make the little red/pink birdies...they are so tweet! love!
Wahoo for spring!
Love your little "love birds". I'm partial to the red one with the string of pearls around her neck! :-)
We have robins all winter long. Small and few in between though. BUT, we don't have anything that even resembles a Puddle! Too darn cold!
Only 6 mores weeks...right? lets see, that's one month and two weeks, and it's almost one month and one week really. And then it will be just one month and then, just 3 short weeks........ Yeahhhhhh, I can almost smell it!!!!
Enjoy your Day.

The "little Mr." wearing Mimi's reading glasses below, left me smiling ear to ear. : )
