Spring Bird Magnet

{one comment}

Posted in: Crafts, Home DecorMarch 27, 2009

Birds are little blessings that chirp to brighten our days and keep us company. Robin Rane made a few birds to keep inside and showcase on her fridge by using a few extra scraps, colored pencils, and paperclips! Although these birds don’t chirp a peep, they are still a silent soul to brighten up a day!

Supplies:

  • Colorful Paperclips
  • Tape
  • Glue
  • Scissors
  • Colored Pencils
  • Decorative scrapbook paper
  • Heavy card stock

Directions:

1. Enlarge the bird picture found HERE and trace onto a piece of paper off of your computer screen

2. Cut out the bird (this will be your template)

3. Trace the bird template onto desired decorative paper for as many birds you want

4. Cut out all birds

5. Trace bird template onto heavy card stock, this will be the back of the bird to make them more sturdy

6. Cut out all birds from card stock

7. Make little feet out of paper clips, tape them to the inside of card stock before you glue the decorative paper on

8. Glue decorative paper to heavy card stock

9. Outline the birdy body with coordinating colored pencil

10. Make eyes, add names or words, pictures etc.. if desired

11. Add magnet strip to back to showcase on the refrigerator!
