needle felted bird's nest Christmas ornament

Finished the little nesties (from this post)!  Here is one with a bird added:
It's easier to see what the clothespin is for now--the nest is glued to the top,
and the pin is used to clip the nest to the tree. The bird is from the
Vintage Illustrated Birds set, and stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

My friends seemed to like them--several decided to clip them in their hair at
dinner, so apparently these are multi-purpose ornaments.
I'm glad I made myself one as well--this little nestie is on our tree right now!

Happy Sunday!
