Whooo...Whooo...

Jellybean has a love of birds, so we decided to make our own owl :)  It was really easy and fun, and actually turned into a craft that lasted for 2 days as everything dried.  She loves it!


Supplies Needed
Brown paper lunch bag
Feathers
Googly eyes
Sparkles
Glitter
Glue
Sequins
2 different sheets of colored paper

1.  Cut out 2 circles for the owl's eyes
2.  From a different colored paper, cut out 1 large triangle for his beak, and two feet.
3.  Turn your bag upside down so that the fold of the bottom of the bag is facing up.  Glue your beak so the triangle is upside down in the middle near the bottom of the fold.  Glue the feet down at the bottom of the bag.



4.  Glue your eyes on either side of the triangle, then glue your googly eyes into the center of the circles.
5.  Start decorating!  Let your little one run wild as they decorate their owl!  We used glitter, glitter glue, sequins and sparkles.
6.  Let it dry for at least a couple of hours until everything is dry.
7.  Turn your owl over and spread glue on the back to adhere the feathers.  I let Jellybean do the glue, and then she arranged the feathers wherever she wanted them!
