​Bird Brooch From Leather

You'll need:

Pin for brooch base;
Pieces of leather for the birds and straps;
Glue;
Thick cardboard.

Instructions

Glue the thin straps from leather that is prepared for the straps - they will be needed for edging.

Glue them. using quick-drying glue, the width of such a bundle is 3-4 mm. They can be made in different lengths, as your piece of material will allow.

Print out brooch patterns, they are printed in full size of the finished product, as they are cut out, glued to cardboard and serve as a stencil for mosaics.

The glued drawing together with the cardboard is carefully cut along the contour, this is done with small scissors.

Now the puzzle is cut into marked elements. And in accordance with the color version of the bird, each piece is placed in its own color, cut out, but not along the contour, but with a margin of 4 mm.

After it is wrapped in material and fixed with glue. Please note that skin can collect when bent, so you should get rid of excess material. We make incisions and remove excess material.

When each part is pasted over with leather, you can put all the elements together in a printed layout.

To consolidate the result, all parts are glued to cardboard, the volume of the brooch is attached.

Starting with the internal elements, you can start with a wing on the paper with a glue piece.

After doing the same with the rest of the bird, not forgetting the straps. The tail is last glued.
When the whole product is ready, leave it to dry for a day.
