UPDATED for 2020! Jodey Hathaway shows how to make owl sculptures in this detailed 9 page instruction set. The owls can be used as sculptures, and some are small enough to use as pendants and even earrings! Ring sizes are given to make 5 different owl sizes, with 2 bonus sizes (extra tall owl and Squish, the Tiniest Owl) included.
The downloadable PDF now features instructions on making left and right leaning HP3-1. The entire PDF was reworked and has all new photos of the entire owl making process, as well as more photos for the more difficult areas. The owl sculpture is an intermediate project as it is a sculpture and will require placement of small rings in tight places. Please note that any normal, tiny variation in ring size can make a difference in your owl. You may need to adjust ring sizes or gauges as you go. Finished height (approximate): XL Tall ~2 1/4", XL ~1 15/16", Large ~1 1/2", Medium ~1 3/16", Small ~7/8", Tiny ~3/4", Squish ~1/2" - Click the owl photo to the left to see a photo of all the sizes.
