This is my second owl craft in about three weeks, so I guess you can probably tell that I like owl stuff. I recently moved into a new apartment and the walls are pretty bare, so I thought, “Why not make some owl stuff to put on the walls?”  I got this wooden owl from Michael’s and painted it with brown paint. I then bought a bunch of pretty scrapbook paper to make the actual owl design.

 This owl mug from Pier 1 Imports was my inspiration.

 I glued the scrapbook paper onto the painted owl using mod podge, and then I mod podged over it to seal the paper. Next I took a piece of poster board and mod podged the background paper onto it.

I’m really not exaggerating when I say that I’m like the worst cutter, ever. It’s so difficult for me just to cut stuff in a straight line, let alone adding poster board into the mix. The poster board was definitely a lot wider when I started, and I had to keep cutting it down to make it look straight. Eventually I was satisfied with it, and I glued the owl onto the poster boar
