DIY Birds Cake Toppers

DIY Bird cake toppers

If you love a bird cake topper but have trouble find the right pairs. DIY one maybe a good idea. Here is on cake topper DIYed by Miss Rainbow. She scoured Michaels at least once a week looking for the perfect Mr. and Mrs. Rainbow peeps. After too many hours in Michaels for the second time that week, she found them. Her two perfect birdies, matching her wedding colors, just waiting for her to take them home and jazz them up!

From Miss Rainbow’s experience, making such a bird cake topper isn’t too hard. (Wow, for me it must be Mission Impossible). So maybe she will post some tutorial, as her said, it was just a few craft supplies and a whole heap of hot glue. It’s basically idiot proof, minus a couple of finger burns.

Ok, the key point is here. Do you know how much this bird cake topper cost? Only $16. Here is the details.

  • 2 birds: $8 ($4 each)
  • Tulle Rounds: $2
  • Nest: $2
  • Bag of Moss: $3
  • Felt (on bottom, so no one ingests twig): $1

If you look closely enough, you can even figure some fake eyelashes on the birds—the right one is covered by the veil, but you can check the left one.

The only thing I feel weird is I think the right bride should be groom and left one should be bride, so how about put it on that white bird? I think it is better.
