craft thursday = robin style
this craft was found via the crafty crow....like so many of my great ideas....she finds them first for me.
we started with paper plates and paint.
we had those really heavy duty chinet plates....they worked awesome for this craft!
we painted half of the plate "sky" blue and the other half "nest" brown.
then we used A LOT of school glue and began fluffing our nests.
we used brown packing shredded stuff that i have had for a long time.
and sticks from the sidewalk....
and string and paper shreds
i cut out some birds that were free hand....just a random bird shape.
we added a red belly.
and glued it on to the bird shape.
then they cut out eggs from blue paper left over from the owl craft last week.
when they were done....i helped with the most important step.
i COVERED the nest in glue.
COVERED.
i used a ton of glue on top of everything they made and let it sit over night to dry.
it worked!

we thought talby's eye was prety realistic since they always look like they are staring at you and mad.
:)
they are glued enough to hang on the wall and not lose their fluff.
craft thursdays ROCK!!
