My word...it's a glitter bird!

It is officially the most wonderful time of the year! In honour of this, I have started some winter crafting (read procrastination from thesis writing). One of my recent projects was a Martha Stewart special - a glitter bird centerpiece.

These little birds were really fun to decorate, and required very few supplies; 

• dollar store birds (they are the kind used for floral arranging)
• clear glue
• glitter that will be picked up by socks for the rest of the season 
• a paint brush 
• and two 'borrowed' branches from the yard trimmings of a neighbour.
