Handcrafted Bird Nest and Eggs Giveaway

Over the weekend I made some tiny blue and brown eggs with modeling clay, some ink and some acrylic paint. I’m ready to call it done.

Now that I finished my bird nest. I’ve decided to offer it as a giveaway to one lucky person…just in time for Easter and Spring.  Yes, it’s a freebie!  All you need to do is leave a comment on this blog entry.  Make sure you give me an email where I can get a hold of you.  I moderate all my comments from new sources, so if you’d like me to hide your info, please tell me.  If you’re a regular, your comments will automatically be approved and I probably know how to find you.

I’ll enter all the people that comment on this blog entry from now until March 23, 2009. I’ll throw all the entries into the hat and draw a name which I’ll announce on March 24, 2009.   

This is purely a housekeeping giveaway.  I don’t sell the bird nests in any of my etsy stores.  I’ve made a couple nests to go with some fabric bird sculptures I made.  I made the nest above as a demo.  Apparently a few people are interested in making nests for pet (live) birds.  Don’t ask me if the bird’s like them.  I keep hoping someone will make a nest and tell me if their bird likes it.

This is the same natural looking bird nest that I made for the 3-part tutorial I finished up last week. The nest is handcrafted with vines, moss, natural wool, twine and bark covered wire. It is very sturdy and will hold up well. The nest will make a great spring or Easter decoration.

Here’s the links for the tutorial:
