Though I’m not a fan of locking innocent birds in small spaces, I’ve always been attracted to those decorative wired bird cages. I spent a whole summer looking for one once. And I never did find one.
Enter this handy little do-it-yourself paper craft project!
These cheery yellow and gray bird cages in fabulous geometric prints are easy to make and require very few materials:
- Printable templates (free download at end of post)
- A color printer
- Card stock
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- String
- A big needle
They’re great as general home decor, birthday party decor, nursery decor, or baby shower decor. My finished set hangs above my head in my office as I type this.
Here are some of the assembly steps in pictures:
