You need this for the birds in the frame:

  • 2 wooden strips, cross-section 3 cm x 1.5 cm, 30 cm long
  • Poplar plywood panel, 3 mm or 4 mm thick, 20 cm x 20 cm
  • 5 ash branches, 30 cm long
  • 10 baseboard pins, 14 mm x 35 mm
  • Acrylic paint in black
  • Relief liner in black
  • Hot glue gun
  • UHU all-purpose glue (alternatively wood glue)

And this is how it's done:

1. Start by making the wood motifs following the general instructions in the front cover.
2. For the multi-part swallows (saw separately, template below in the download of the manual), the edges are smoothed and painted the motif parts before gluing together.
3. If the paint is dry, you can dab the eyes with the relief liner. Fix the finished swallows to the branch pieces with the glue gun.

Here are the instructions including template for download.
