Guinea art. I need honest opinions

[Sunshine_Chick]

You've truly created a work of art with love! Your Grand-in-law(s) will adore this. Nothing better than a gift from the heart! You, an artist, have started something now!

Thank you. The simplicity is definitely what I was going for.
My first idea was to make a bigger, beaded and wrapped bird. It was not working out at all! So I wanted something much smaller and simpler.
I have finished it now. I swapped out the original bird with the heart one.
I am really happy with it because it is ment to be a light catcher and I feel the addition of the heart bead makes it catch more light and tie it all together
The all wire one I think would be good in a dreamcatcher

**Please excuse the tape, I need to pick up a window suction hook.

It's beautiful! Very impressive work.

Awe, thank you everyone I really was not expecting people to like it. I was more prepared for hard criticism over the shower of complaints y’all have given me I’m about to tear up! Thank you everyone for all the kind and encouraging words! I really mean it, it is very unexpected but very appreciated!
And I love the suggestions! You guys have been so helpful and made it even better!

I did think about tying the beak on instead of the chest. I was just worried that might look odd because I made the circle a tad bigger then I meant to. The tail and beak were meant to just slightly touch the edges of the circle. But it didn’t work out that way:/
And yes! You are absolutely right. Clear fishing line to drop it down from the hook will look so much better! I didn’t think of that and it would make such a difference!

So glad you showed it to us! What a treat to see. Thank you so much for sharing!

And if anyone in the future gives you grief about your art work, don't take it! It's not heart surgery where you can do something right or wrong, it's your expression of your creativity - always right!
