Bird Luminary

1.Materials Needed for Bird Luminary

To make this Bird Luminary you will need to print out the PDF template. You will need an Xacto Blade, battery-operated tea candle, paper, straight edge, and glue or tape.

2. Carefully Cut Template

You will want a sharp blade for this project and a steady hand. Go Slow.

3.Trace Template

Place the cut template on paper of choice. I used thick paper with no pattern for tutorial purposes. Tape it down with a low-tack tape (like masking or painters tape), and trace with a light pencil stroke. Remove template and cut, again.

4.Lift Edges

Gently lift edges outward. Or skip this step by cutting the shapes out.

5. Finished Bird Luminary

Gently bend the paper and attatch overlap with glue or tape. Use any paper (if its thin, consider lamination). I suppose you could use tin if you have the tools and a little chalk. Or maybe even laminated fabric?
