We love handmade holiday ornaments! They are so fun to make and extra fun to give to friends and family! Here's a little video tutorial on how to make these bird nests:
*Music by Sleeping At Last, Used With Permission. Download his Christmas Album for free here.
Using a few dabs of Elmer's Glue here in there will help your fabric stay in place. I used straight pins through the tops of the birds to attach the ribbon for hanging. You could also glue clips to the bottom the nest to secure them to tree branches. Have fun making these! xo. Katie

love the video… you should definitely do more video tutorials! I know they probably take longer to do because of editing and such, but it’s just so much easier to understand how to do projects if you watch them!
These might be one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen! Where did the little birdies come from?

These are really adorable! AND I LOVE how you kept the nest in a cream color to match the bird rather than making it a brown or natural straw color – it adds to the festive nature! LOVE!
