Nanniepannie's Blog: IT'S A GIRL!

Sunday, July 22, 2012

Last year I brought home some pink striped paper

from VS. We had used it to line our bra trays

that merchandise our beautiful

bras.

I was inspired to make some birds using it,

but alas it was a little too thick

for folding.

I was inspired though, so I went to Michaels

and purchased some similar papers

that would do the trick.

The VS paper got me to thinking

about "Baby Showers"

I picked up some little charms

that make it work.

In my world the STORK has taken a holiday

and the CRANE is filling in.

Here is what I've come up with.

Three print origami birds on some skewers.

I think they make the perfect decorating piece

and when the party is over

everyone gets to take one home as

a party favor.

I also made some jumbo birds...well pretty big,

that can be hung over the table.

The neat thing about these birds

they can be used

in the nursery

when the baby girl comes.

You will be able to find them in my etsy shop
