There are many different ways to put wool out for the birds…you might tie small tufts to a branch,
or tie a bundle in fishnetting, or fill a hanging planter basket!
We started with a patch of wool to cover the largest opening on the bottom of the basket
and then layered tufts of core wool, yarns and merino-cross felting batts.

 Make sure the yarns are dangling out and pull some wool through the openings as well.
The birds will be very attracted to them blowing in the breeze of the day!

 Here is our fun and playful nest basket! Some birds came to it right away
and made a hole in the side of the pile, so we just squashed it down.
Now we get to keep our eye out for some soft and colorful nests this spring!

What have you made or what will you make for your feathered friends?
Post in the comments, and send us photos  of your gifts for the birds and babies to come!
