Bird of happiness - decoration for indoor plants
A blue bird with original embroidery is a wonderful addition to any living corner. It will become not just decor, but also a real talisman of happiness for your family.


It’s very easy to create such a bird, because you can use any old jeans for sewing. It is better to embroider with special threads (floss), but iris, lurex or thin silk are also suitable.

We first draw the details on paper, cut them out and transfer them to fabric.
Important! Paired components (wings and parts of the body) must be drawn in a mirror projection.


Then we sew each side part of the body with a wide lower insert using a basting stitch.


Now that the base is tightly fixed, we sew the entire contour of the product with the main thread using a reverse stitch.

We turn the body inside out (through the slot near the tail) and stuff it with padding polyester.

After this, we sew the bird completely with a buttonhole stitch along the edge, starting from the hole.


It's time to start finishing. The first stage of decor will be embroidery side mesh. To do this, draw oblique lines with a blue ballpoint pen.It’s just that on denim (also under embroidery) these lines will not be as noticeable as, say, red lines.


We embroider all the outlines with an even stitch, so it will take very little effort and time.


We decorate the bird's breast with rows of red flowers, which are separated by dotted lines.



The wings also have their own distinctive pattern and color scheme. We also apply it with even stitches.

To make the wings look neat on the inside, glue colored paper to the wrong side. It is better not to use fabric here at all, because a double layer of denim will make the wings very heavy.



The wings should also be glued to the body with polymer glue.

The beak can be made from any fabric of a suitable color (in this case it is burgundy leatherette), which, again, is best attached with glue.



Now we place the finished bird on a skewer, having first made a small puncture from the bottom.

And now our bird of happiness is ready. In green spaces it looks very attractive and expressive.
