1. Aluminum Foil and Moss
The base used for this particular bird's nest DIY is aluminum foil. To form a nice bowl-like shape, you will need to mold the aluminum foil using an actual bowl. You then cover said foil with moss and twine. Do this using hot glue. Once you have a nice nest, add eggs.

2. Glass Bowl and Moss
The process for making this pretty bird's nest is a little bit similar to the previous DIY. Instead of making a mold out of a bowl, you will actually be using glassware for this project. You basically cover the bowl with moss and then fill it with eggs and a lovely bird after. Use spray adhesive to cover the glass bowl with moss. You can leave the bottom of the bowl uncovered so that your nest will be easy to display on a flat surface.

3. Vintage Thread Spools
I am hopelessly in love with this idea. Miniatures are my weakness so this darling bird's nest craft project is calling out my name. If you want to make your own, you simply roll thread around your fingers and then shape into a nest using hot glue. Perch onto a twig using more hot glue and then add miniature eggs.

4. Gift Topper
Here is another miniature bird's nest idea. This one was used as a gift topper but it can also be perfect as a cute detail for a shadow box. Place several under upside down glasses and use as whimsical table centerpieces. To make your own, you cut a small paper circle. Glue twine by coiling along the side of this circle. Continue coiling and gluing until you have a nice little nest. Add felted balls as eggs or miniatures if you can find them. Add a cute bird as well, for good measure.

5. Mason Jar Lamp
A bird's nest inside a Mason jar, that also happens to be a lamp? Seriously, TOO cute. The bird's nest section here can easily be constructed using moss and some fake eggs from the craft store. You don't have to do the lamp steps here, too; the nest in the jar idea is cute enough.
