  3. Finish the project off by putting a piece of cord through the heart to make the loop.
  4. Optionally add some beads to the cord as well.
  5. To make a parrot felt oval shape then add a beak and plastic eyes (glue them in).

NOTES

Those ornaments would make also perfect little gift, not only for Christmas.

My previous article on needle felting / dry felting can be found here.

Needle felted animals, such as this teddy I made a while back, can be very easily turned into Christmas ornaments just by adding a cord loop with only few pushes of the felting needle.
