Sparrows


After visiting the Little Moon and Rock, Paper, Sparrow boutiques in Redondo Beach, I got the idea to do wooden cut-outs of sparrows. Both stores have quirky trinkets, a peacock-like chair adorned with hats, and a vintage chalkboard next to the mannequins. I left thinking, I need to break out of the rectangular format! First, I drew a graphic shape of the birds and laser-cut them. Here are the birds naked on plywood.



I painted both sides with acrylics with a colorful pattern and then attached the set with basic yarn and a dowel. The set is ready to hang.




These sparrows are available under our Etsy store. Make sure to check back often as we will be updating with new items.
