This pink robin is awaiting a coat of black paint on its' beak; then a light sprinkling of silver acrylic. AND the all important coating of glitter along its' back. Then it'll be banded (number of bird) and will be ready to fly! Well, after the legs get a coat of something that will cover the yellow string and shiny metal, and a hanging thread strung, that is...
Cut, sew, glue, cut, sew, glue, cut, sew, glue...
An early starling joins the fray! Each bird gets its' own armature!!
I am so excited! I finally scrunched up enough nerve to contact a retail outlet to see if they might be interested in selling my birds...and they want to meet me to see them in person. I'm nervous and excited all at once. So I am in full on bird making mode. BUT MY DAUGHTER GETS BACK TOMORROW! (Can you hear the pounding timbal in the background? No, wait, that is my heart!) Time to clean up!
Thanks for dropping by! *smiles* Norma

ReplyDeleteHurrah, more tables of indeterminate purpose. One long arm sweep (once all the precious birds are removed) should do the trick! Good luck with the meeting and well done yoiu for having the confidence :)
