A Home For The Birds

Spring has arrived in Atlanta and it's time to help my feathered friends decorate their house. I had the design in my head so I decided to draw it out on paper and buy what I needed.

Supplies:

  • scrap plywood
  • small nails
  • good adhesive glue
  • spray paint
  • acrylic paints for details


Tools:

  • jig saw
  • drill with 1.5 inch wide drill bit
  • hammer
Here it is in the making. I got some help from my brother-in-law. After I cut out the pieces, I glued them and installed some small nails to keep it together. The holes for the birds were made using a drill with a 1 1/2" bit. Plenty of room for the birds to slip in.

By the way, this birdhouse is a "triplex". I'm hoping that I get a few families!

Three hard wood floors. I think the birds should like this.

Here we have the finished product already for some new clients. I added the hand painting just to give it a creative look. I am certain the birds will appreciate it.Now..................I wait.01 02 03

  1. That is an adorable birdhouse. I love the lime green and I'm sure the birds will too.
