The inspiration for this project came from Fiskars, diy nest holder. I decided to use a regular brown lunch bag because of it’s lighter weight as compared to kraft paper or cardstock.

Step 1 Supplies: a brown paper bag (makes 2 nests), scissors, glue stick and Jelly Belly
Step 2 Cut the bag as close to the bottom of the bag as possible.
Step 3 Cut 2 – 10 inch circles from the top part of the bag and 2 – 2 1/2 inch circles from the bottom of the bag. (the circles do not need to be perfect just a rough estimate)
Step 4 & 5 Take one of the two large circles and start at the outer edge with a pair of scissors, cut in a spiral to the center.
Step 6 Use your hand and crumple the cut spiral circle.
Step 7 Starting from the center, dab a little bit of glue on the paper towards the bottom edge and start wrapping the paper around itself. Repeat the two steps, dab glue every few inches to prevent the paper from unraveling and to secure the nest.
Step 8 Apply glue to the top of a small 2 1/2 inch circle and place it under the nest and press firmly.
Step 9 Add Jelly Belly to the center of the nest.
