Bird’s Nest Bowl

This is an old springtime project I made a few years ago. But I still think it’s really cute and it makes a great little decoration for the spring months. Here’s how to make your own.

DIY Bird’s Nest Bowl – what you need:

  • loose straw
  • spray adhesive
  • bowl/tupperware
  • mini birds (optional)

Step 1: Shape the bowl

Start by putting the straw into a bowl or tupperware that is about the same size (maybe slightly smaller) so that the straw forms kind of a bowl shape.

Step 2: Hold it together

Outside, spray the adhesive over the top of the straw. You might want to do this a couple of times. Once it’s dry, you should be able to remove the straw from the bowl with it staying pretty much the same shape. Then spray the adhesive over the bottom of the straw bowl too.

Step 3: Decorate

If you want, add some miniature birds or other decorations around the outside of the bowl. I got these little vintage birds from my grandma’s craft stash and they’re what inspired the whole project to begin with. Then fill the bowl with little rings, other jewelry, or anything else you can think of!
