“A BEAUTIFUL BIRD-IN-THE-HAND!!!”

These colorful ornaments are fashioned with great care and meticulous craft! They feel so smooth and solid in the hand. Each bird is unique in its brightly-colored pattern. The birds make ideal and festive additions when tied to a wrapped gift! Each is a small but lovely keepsake. Thank you, Mr. Hussain, for sharing your talent. I always share where this gift is from, and the artists name, as every handmade work of art should be recognized and celebrated!!!
