These charming little birdies make the perfect home decorations. Whether for the holidays, nurseries, or as a cute accent, they will add a colorful handmade touch to your space!
Creative Ways to Use Your Handmade Birds
These crochet bird ornaments will be good as a quick holiday decoration for your interiors (e.g., to highlight Thanksgiving decorations or Halloween spooky colours) or just for the sheer pleasure and whimsy. The pattern can also be used as a baby bedroom decor or hung as a baby mobile.
Necessary Materials for Crochet Birdie Decorations
If you have any yarn scraps in your stash, you are ready to make these crochet bird decorations. The pattern was designed as a stash-busting project, so you can put those odds and ends of yarn to good use.
The original samples were made with DK yarn and a 3 mm crochet hook, but you can go for any other yarn and a matching hook. Just be aware that this might change the item measurements.
Embellishing Your Hanging Decorations
Would you like to give your ornaments more detail? Prepare a couple of buttons for the eyes or add cute dangling legs. If you feel confident enough, you can play with this design and embellish it with flower appliques.
How to Crochet the Bird Ornaments
These handmade bird decorations are super easy to construct with just basic stitches, making them great for beginners.
Here is what it will look like. First, you will crochet a round flat circle that will be folded in half to form the body. Then, you need to create a small triangle for the beak and two leafy shapes for the wings.
Once you have it done, assemble all the pieces together, add a hanging loop, and voila la! Your ornament is ready to go!
