It's spring! All the birds whistle, they make a nest, lay eggs and little birds come. A bird is very easy to sculpt yourself. Especially with the soft white clay of Creall (Do&Dry), something fun clay is an egg. Below you can see how in one act you quickly have a bird shape. 

A bird nest with funny birds is actually very easy. With 1 pack of clay (250 grams) you can make 4 birds. Clay for example a motherbird with hat, a fatherbird and a smaller baby bird with bow. Make a litter with some Easter straw or raffia (paper plate underneath) and you could also make some eggs. Then it really becomes a cozy cozy litter!

Supplies: Air-drying modeling clay (does not need to be baked and dries in the air), feathers, wiggle eyes, piece of orange chenille thread (or piece of colored paper) and 3 cocktail sticks that you cut through half. Paint your birds with nice colors, eg. with the (transparent) Creall Glitter paint. You can immediately paint your bird after modeling, you do not have to wait with dyeing until the clay is dry and hard, hear!

These birds will celebrate spring and wish you a nice, cheerful and cozy craft spring! Let's hear from you? Feel free to send your photos of your creations to ilse@deknutseljuf.nl if it can be shared here.
