After completing phase 1 of my owlettes, improvements were necessary. Isaac’s owlette just wasn’t settling with me. Plus Luke & Carmen’s eyes were too far apart…must fix now! Isaac’s eyes are now much larger and more proportionate to his body frame. And I moved Luke & Carmen’s eyes closer together, much better! Cheyenne inherited Isaac’s original eyes, which work out great. Next, onto the bottom support structure. The directions here use cardboard, but my hubby suggested 1/4″ plywood rounds. Cardboard would eventually get wonky and moist in our Hawaii weather, so plywood would be a whole lot better. Plus, plywood is heavier and props up the owlettes perfectly…yay!
