Yarn Nest

>> Wednesday, April 28, 2010


The Magic Onions had this timely post on how to make a nest with a balloon, white glue, and yarn.  We went out right away to buy yarn and made our nest right before nap.



It's been cold and cloudy here, so it took a good three days for the nest to dry.

We found this project to go well with the book Just How Long can a Long String Be? by Keith Baker, a book we just happened to have out from the library.

Nice project. It looks like you and Bear have a lot of fun with nests and birds. Anna made a nest out of an old hat and keeps her plastic Easter eggs in it :)

I've seen these projects of making nests with yarn before and am always amazed at how well it works. It looks like a great tie-in with that book too.

We just made these yesterday. So cool! I love your birds inside them.
