An Aussie spin on the peace dove symbol at Christmas time.

Step 1. Choose your favourite Australian native bird. What colour/s is its body? The foam cylinder will be used as the bird’s body. If white, leave the cylinder unpainted, otherwise paint it the colour/s of the bird. You may need to mix some new colours too. Allow for drying time.

Step 2. Cut out the bird’s features from cover paper (e.g. crests, wings beaks, feet, etc.).

Step 3. Glue the features onto the painted foam cylinder with Supertac.

Step 4. Push in two Joggle Eye Pins to give the bird eyes.

Step 5. Create a hanger from jute string and attach it to the top of the bird with a pin.
