10 Craft Ideas to do With Cockatiel Coloring Pages
Once you've filled your home with colorful cockatiel masterpieces, don't let those beautiful pages go to waste! Transform them into these fun, easy, and affordable crafts.
1. Flying Friend Mobile
Color several cockatiels, then carefully cut them out. Punch a small hole at the top of each cutout and thread with string or yarn. Tie these strings to a straightened wire hanger or two crisscrossed popsicle sticks to create a delightful hanging mobile for any room.
2. “Hello!” Stick Puppet
Color your favorite cockatiel page, then carefully cut out the bird's shape. Glue the cutout firmly onto a craft stick or an unsharpened pencil. Now you have a friendly cockatiel puppet ready to “talk” and put on a show for friends or family!
3. Cockatiel Crest Headband
Color a cockatiel, focusing on its adorable head and iconic crest. Cut out just this head portion. Glue your cutout to a strip of poster board or construction paper, sized to fit around your head, and secure the ends with tape or glue for a unique wearable crest.
4. Cozy Perch Diorama
Transform a shoebox into a miniature cockatiel habitat. Color and cut out a few cockatiels, then glue them inside, appearing to perch on real twigs or rolled-up brown construction paper “branches.” You can even draw a simple background of clouds or leaves to complete their cozy home.
5. Chirpy Greeting Card
Fold a piece of colorful construction paper in half to make a personalized card. Color and cut out a single, happy-looking cockatiel from your pages. Glue your feathered friend onto the front of the card and add a speech bubble cutout saying “Chirp!” or “Hello!” for a sweet message.
6. Sunny Aviary Suncatcher
Color a cockatiel with bright, vibrant colors. Carefully cut it out and glue it onto a piece of clear contact paper or laminate it using clear packing tape. Trim around the edges, leaving a small border, then use a loop of tape to stick your “suncatcher” to a window, letting the light shine through.
7. Cockatiel Memory Match
Print and color two copies of several different cockatiel coloring pages. Cut out each bird and glue them onto small, identical squares of cardstock or poster board for durability. Mix them up and lay them face down to create your very own cockatiel-themed memory game!
8. Feathered Photo Frame
Cut out a rectangular frame shape from sturdy cardboard or poster board. Color and cut out several small cockatiel illustrations from your finished pages. Glue these cheerful birds all around the frame's border, then insert a favorite photo in the center to create a unique display.
9. “Please Chirp In!” Door Hanger
Cut a door hanger shape (with a hook opening) from poster board. Color and cut out a prominent cockatiel, gluing it onto the main body of the hanger. Add a written message like “Please Chirp In!” or “Quiet Time” and decorate with drawn feathers or pipe cleaners.
10. Perching Pal Bookmark
Color a cockatiel, perhaps focusing on its body and tail. Cut it out. Glue it to a sturdy strip of cardstock, making sure a portion of the bird (like its head or tail) extends slightly above the top edge when inserted into a book. Your feathered friend will “perch” at the top of your page!
