DIY Paper Birds.





Lately, I've been looking through a few of my craft books, trying to find something new for the little one and me to do. Our daughter is two and is very hands-on. So today I decided we would make these cute little paper birdies.


Materials needed:
Paint (or you can use crayons or markers) we used paint
hole puncher 
Paper clips 
tape
Craft paper

It's a very simple project. I just started off with making a bird so that I could use that as a cutout for the rest. Both my daughter and I painted our birds and allowed them to dry. Later we put the paper clips on each bird, using some tape to keep them in place. Using a hole punch, just punch out one eye on your paper bird. Now place them in a pot, or in your window. They are super cute.
