Owls are so much fun to make and can be used for a variety of occasions or just for fun. Use these owls for platesetters, room decor, or for pretend play.
There are a large number of owl patterns available for free with a quick google search. I used a sewing pattern and just cut it out onto paper. I finished the owls with a quick paper stand.
Here is the link for the pattern: https://petitelefant.com/diy-owl-bean-bag/
