Craft Foam Ball Owl: $1 and up
Dawn made this adorable owl from a craft foam ball, felt, and googly eyes. You should be able to make a bunch for a buck if you have felt and glue on hand (if you don’t have googly eyes, you should, but you can also sub felt cutouts for eyes). This would be a fun slumber party or scout troop project. Check out the tutorial over at Dawnypoo.
Owl Purse Tutorial: $1 and up
This cute owl purse tutorial is available at A Wednesday Afternoon. Chance are you have fabric in your stash to make this cutie. You can also find a bunch of adorable owl project ideas here. I found it via Reader Crafty Little Beana’s blog. Click here for the tutorial.
Cute Kitty Votives: $1 and up
Meli at Mother Mary Machine made these cute votives using some cute magazine images, mod podge, and nail polish! This is a great way to use up old nail polish colors. Admit it, you have a drawer-full that you aren’t going to use on your piggies anymore! This is a simple craft, and I bet tweens would get a kick out of this one. You can use battery-operated tea lights to make it safe for bedrooms, or just use the votive holders as catch-all cups for rings, hair things, or whatever. Check out the tutorial at Mother Mary Machine.

You’ve convinced me to buy some of those birds, but I’m finding that everyone else must have seen their potential, too. They’re almost completely sold out at both of my stores! :)
I love that quail, and I’m debating if that’s what I should do with mine. Thanks for spotlighting all these beautiful projects!
