The birds...not the Hitchcock variety!

I promised that I would show you what I did with the wooden birds...
First, I base-coated them with Ceramcoat's Oyster White acrylic paint...both sides.
Then I made a template by tracing one of the birds...

I free-handed the wing...
Both pieces were traced onto double-sided scrapbook papers...

I used Mod Podge to attach the papers to the birds. I Mod Podged the wings separately
 before attaching them to the body.
Buttons for eyes.


All but one flew away.
