Place one of the strips across the bottom of the bird’s body.

Fold the longer end under the bird’s body. Then fold the same end over the top of the body and then under once more. At the back, fold the end under the wrapped layer of paper to hold it in place.

Snip the ends with scissors to shape the bird’s tail.

Using a thick embroidery needle, make a small hole at the point you want to hang your decoration. Thread the twine through the hole and tie a knot in the ends to make a loop.
