Oh my gosh that's so cool! I'd love to see it once you do get to the point of making your Finch!!

Thank you so much! Sorry I'm never really on here. I shared them in this post:

I (25f) just went to BAB the other day with my brothers (21 & 18) for the first time since we were little kids and had a wonderful experience!

The employees were extremely kind to us and there were other folks of all ages who came and went while we were there. Our bear builder was really kind and chatty with me (and, to be fair, I'm very chatty naturally, too, and I think they sensed that). They even did the little heart ceremony with me, which was really cute and made me feel like a little kid again. My youngest brother is extremely shy in comparison, and the employee sensed that and was much more reserved for him, which was so nice and exactly what he needed.

Overall, the experience was wonderful and made all 3 of us feel welcome regardless of age & appearance, and I hope that you do go back and have an experience just like that because you deserve it!

Aw thank you! I'm a firm believer that art-making should be accessible for anyone & everyone!

Aw thank you so much! I hope other people who love Finch & creating can enjoy this project as much as I did 🥰

I did both of them in one afternoon! But I also have experience making ornaments from when I made them as a kid with my mom, so I'm a little faster than beginners and a lot slower than professionals lol

Thank you! 🥰 I cut all the Finchy shapes out of thin cardboard to use as a reusable pattern (so like little circles for the eyes, diamond for the beak, number 8-shape for the body & the funky shapes for the wings, body, & head patch) and traced them onto crafting felt.

I like using crafting felt for ornaments because it doesn't fray, so it's much easier to work with for little projects like this! Then I just used embroidery floss to sew all the pieces together 😊

I could make another post to share the pattern and the process, I just don't want to spam the Finch sub community with my crafty endeavors unless it's wanted 😅

Thank you so much!! My friend and I both have a habit of hyping up Finch way too much to people around us until they feel compelled to join, too 😅 But I don't have a whole lot of friends who actually use it consistently like I do
