I love birds. Not in a “pet” way but in a home decor way. I didn’t even know how much I loved birds until I looked around my house about a year ago and realized I have a ton of bird stuff. Now I actually seek it out. I have at least one “birdlike” piece in every room of our home. Here is my newest edition, the Bird Trio, they are going to go over my craft table.
my craft space is so depressingly small in a picture
This project is so easy, I just spray painted three matching black frames. Then I cut all three images out with my Silhouette. The image on the right is available in the Silhouette online store. There were so many cute birdcages, I could hardly choose. Then the image on the left is a Taylor Made original. I just found a picture of a tree and used the “Trace” option (I love it) which you can read about here. When you use the Trace feature in the Silhouette software, you have to play around with the options in the sidebar. The middle image is from a Martha Stewart printable. Then all I did was mount them on grey card stock.
Here are just a few of the other birds that “live” in our house.
Welcome new birdies…

This is really cute! I did something very similar with a bird silhouette – same color scheme!

My girls’ room is decorated with birds but I want more throughout the house. I don’t think I’d like them as pets though. This bird trio is adorable!
Also – that bird mobile. You really balanced the sticks! I cheated and used a branch to hang them over my baby’s crib.
