I was inspired by the Christmas colors at this blog, and I just had to make these little birdies in the same colors out of these wooden rings I got at a thrift store. I love them so much!! But they don't fit into my holiday decor at all, so naturally, I'm giving them away!
These are the rings that I made them from. I think they're for....curtain rods? I guess? I painted them with acrylic paints, glued on some googly eyes and felt wings & beaks, and added some wire feet that I made by bending some jewelry wire that I had.
And I did make two for myself as well! They're love birds! I love the one with the crazy hair.
To enter to win the polka-dot birdies, just leave a comment! If you're a follower, leave an extra comment to let me know. You can always give these away at an ornament exchange if they don't match your decor, either!
I'll pick the winner on Monday morning, so you have from now until I wake up on Monday to enter! :o)
God bless!

Precious! Thanks for the fun and thanks for inspiring all of us! Blessings!
So cute! I have some wooden rings sitting around somewhere that I could do these with...
