Parrot 3D Mural Bricks

A picture you build. 1,700 mini bricks, 4.5mm x 6mm, clip onto a blue baseplate until two parrots sit side by side on a branch — a red macaw and a white cockatoo — with leaves, clouds and hearts around them. The finished piece hangs on a wall or leans on a shelf.

Why builders like it

• It is not a flat mosaic. The wings and the tails are stacked in layers, so they lift clear of the plate.
• Two birds, two color runs. The macaw is a full spectrum; the cockatoo is built almost entirely in whites and greys.
• Mini bricks hold tight detail. The beaks, the eyes and the yellow flowers are each only a few pieces wide.
• It finishes as wall art, so the hours stay on display instead of going back in the box.
