Here are the baby chickadees

I bought this adorable baby birds pin, about 3 inches wide, at an estate sale.

I was planning on altering it to a necklace pendant.

Here are baby bluebirds

Then I started seeing all the different baby birds that it “could” possibly be.

So, I made a simple silicone mold of the pin and did several (actually 4) different pendants with different babies.

Here are the Baby Robins

I used clear resin, then hand painted the birds, then decided on their destination.

Using various stampings, beads etc. I SO dislike repetition, they all had to different, different birds, and different perches.

Still have not decided what I will do with the original pin…maybe nothing~
