The size of wreath depends on your size of bird. For this project, I am using a 13" willow wreath. This wreath was purchased at the Dollar Tree for $1.
Next, I attached a Quick Link to the wreath with a plastic tie. Did the same thing with all sorts of toy parts. I attached each one with a plastic tie. Many were leftovers from old toys. :-)
Even added some old chain from an old toy. I continued until the wreath was packed with toy parts, both plastic and wood pieces.
Now it's ready to hang!
