crocheted sulphur crested cockatoo on perch room decoration

Crocheted sulphur crested cockatoo

This cute bird has been crocheted in acrylic yarn, filled with polyester fill and hanging on fishing nylon from a bamboo ring that can be hung from a hook. 
It would look lovely hanging in a sunroom or a child’s room.
It measures 20cm from tip of feather to base of leaf, approx. 15cm from tail to beak.
The cockatoo is sitting on a real wooden perch adorned with gum leaves and a red gum blossom.

These birds are brilliant in a nursery hanging near cot or change table as they move in the slightest breeze and catch baby's attention. Excellent for a distraction from crying.

This item has been made with “safety eyes”. These are plastic eyes that are locked onto the face with a backing plate so they cannot be removed.

However,  they are not recommended for under three year olds or should not be left with an unsupervised child or in a child’s cot.
