My kids and I watched “Mary Poppins” recently and even my 3-year-old has been walking around the house singing, “Feeeed the birds, toppins a bag…toppins…toppins…”

With this in mind I created these  little bird-seed packets.  They are made of pieces of wax paper, folded and taped along the edges with double-stick tape.  With pre-cut tags and clip-art birds, these were pretty easy to put together.

I added a few other embellishments like feathers and stuff, you know, for the pictures. 

Depending on the size of the piece of wax paper you tear off, you can make the packets different sizes.

Wouldn’t these make cute party favors? Or perhaps a party craft at a ‘bird’ themed party? The bird lover would surely appreciate a basket full.

If the stick on this one looks like something I just picked up off the ground outside, it’s because it is.

I thought it looked cool threaded through the edges of the tag.

Wax paper tears easily so the tops of the packets can be torn off and re-used as bookmarks, card embellishments, mood board elements, etc. after the birds are fed.

Have a beautiful weekend!
