Choose a slightly larger box for this bird and paint as shown in the magazine step-by-step. Cut stamped images from coloured card, glue the clock face with text to the box lid and then add the extra clock face along with the head, wings and legs on top. Fold the legs where they meet the edge of the box so it looks as if the bird is sitting down.
