A Bird in the Hand-i-Craft

A review of crafty toy birds

Handmade Crochet Bird

There are several 'Bird Days' throughout the year, with the first one occurring on January 5th (National Bird Day). This reminded me that I wanted to show off some of the bird handicrafts I have come across in my crafting journey.

Whether crafty birds are carved out of wood as toys, room decor or jewelry, knitted or crocheted as cute plush animals, or sewn into soft pillow toys, they all make adorable toys for children to play with or teens or college kids to use to decorate their room. Birds appeal to many people and the choices in hand-crafted items are truly unique.

Blue Bird Needlepoint Coasters

Bluebird Coasters handmade in Needlepoint

Stay happy with the "Bluebird of Happiness' in the form of a set of beverage coasters.

Listing is for a happy set of handmade coasters in the shape and design of a bluebird. A pretty set of mats for your tabletops in the colors of the Mountain Bluebird.

Hand-stitched in needlepoint on plastic canvas with royal blue, light blue and white acrylic yarn, these bluebird coasters measure approximately 4 x 4 inches.

The Navajo identify the mountain bluebird as a spirit in animal form, associated with the rising sun. Use these coasters as you have your morning coffee and greet the new day.

Handmade Hummingbird Softie

Plush Toy Handmade Hummingbird

I love Hummingbirds they are fun to watch - so busy ... so cute and colorful. I always wanted to hold one ... and now you can too ;-).

This handmade crochet hummingbird is crocheted with ultra-soft chenille/velvet yarn, giving her that irresistibly squishy, velvety texture you just can't put down. With her outstretched wings, rosy cheeks, and sweet little beak, she's ready to find her forever home — no feeder required.
