Flying Swallows

Minimalist Flying Swallows / Wall Decor Set

Bring a touch of nature and modern elegance into your home with this set of 4 Minimalist Flying Swallows. Inspired by traditional Portuguese ceramic swallows (Andorinhas), this flat, contemporary silhouette design looks stunning on any living room, bedroom, or hallway wall.

The pieces are entirely flat (no internal 3D texture gradients), giving them a clean, shadow-casting silhouette look when mounted.

📐 Features & Dimensions

Modern Silhouette: Completely flat faces for a sleek, clean, matte look.

Easy Mounting: Designed to be lightweight so they can be easily hung with small nails, mounting putty (Blu-Tack), or double-sided tape.

Scalable: Perfect at default size, but easily scalable in your slicer to fit your specific wall space.

🖨️ Recommended Print Settings

Material: PLA (Matte Black works best for that classic silhouette/metal look).

Layer Height: 0.2mm is perfect.

Infill: 15% (Grid or Gyroid).

Top/Bottom Layers: 4-5 layers to ensure a perfectly smooth, solid flat surface.

Bed Adhesion: No brim needed if your bed adhesion is good, as the models have a large flat surface area.

💡 Assembly & Hanging Tip

To get the perfect layout on your wall (just like in the reference photo):

Use a pencil and a level to lightly draw guide crosses (+) on your wall to mark the center/spacing for each bird.

Hang the birds using small finishing nails or high-quality double-sided mounting tape.

Gently erase the pencil marks once everything is aligned!
