- Make a sachet by adding a little lavender or a few drops of essential oil to the stuffing.
- Stitch a folded ribbon or string into the center seam between the wings and you've got an easy Christmas ornament.
- Glue a hair clip to the bottom and clip it to random places.
- Glue your Little Birdie to a large button base for more stability.
- Insert a 1" magnet with the stuffing then stick your Little Birdie to random places.
And here's how you can make 146 at a time...
UPDATE: See full instructions to make a flock HERE.

| Glue 8 sets of wings to each 2-1/2" strip for bodies, stitch to 2-1/2" strips for head/tail, then cut apart. |
