I collect birds, they are so adorable and they really add a lot of cheer to my home. I love finding birds for my collection at garage sales and thrift shops, but I also love to make DIY birds. I recently found this DIY miniature bird video tutorial by Hobby Market, on YouTube, and I really wanted to make some of these lovely birds to add to my collection. The method of making these DIY birds is really easy because you just make a mold using foil, then cover it with thin to medium weight napkins that are soaked in glue.

Materials For DIY Miniature Birds:

  • Aluminum foil
  • Bendable wire
  • Napkins
  • Elmer’s glue (or Mod Podge)
  • Craft paint (in the colors of your choice)
  • Paintbrushes

Directions:

In this DIY miniature bird video tutorial by Hobby Market, on YouTube, you will learn to make these darling little birds in a few easy steps. You begin by making an aluminum foil sculpture of a basic bird shape. Then you will cover it in napkins painted with decoupage glue.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
