Holiday Mantel Bird
Chirp Chrip! This little cutie will look awesome perched on mantel or end table.

Instructions

1. Trim holiday papers to fit on the surface of the wood bird.  Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the back of the papers and position on the bird. Smooth any air bubbles with your fingers.  Wait 15 min. and top-coat with a layer of Mod Podge.

2. Trace the heart shape onto holiday themed papers. Cut out the shape.  Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the back of the paper and position on the back of the heart shape.  Smooth any air bubbles with your fingers.  Wait 15 min. and top-coat with a layer of Mod Podge.  Allow to dry.

3. Hot glue trim to the tail.  Attach the heart to form a wing with hot glue.  Add silk flowers, rhinestones and embellishments in your desired pattern.

PROJECT TIP: Paper not your thing?  You can use paints, crackle finish and stains to alter wood shapes and birds.
