For the Bird house: Roll the paste about 1/8" thick, roll it with the textured roller to give it a nice design. Cut the front and back of the bird house with the cutter of the same shape. Use the circle cutter to make the little hole for the front and the bottom of the front of the house. Cut one square piece for the bottom Cut one piece of the long rectangle piece for the top. Let the pieces dry for at least 4 hours then glue them together with the Teroleim.

For the Doves: Roll a little ball with the cold porcelain paste, with your fingers divide the ball in two, one part smaller then the other forming the body and head, pinching the end of the bigger side form the tail and pinching a little bit on the head form the beak. Cut two leave shape pieces for the wings, glue them to the sides of the body with a red magic marker paint the beak and with a black one make the eyes. For the little flowers: Make a little string with the paste and roll it making the flower.
