I made these 2 birdhouses from hats I got on sale.I cut a small hole in
the hat for a door..I glued a perch below the hole added
embellishments,a wire to hang them on the back side of the hat and hung
them on the wall.They look great with our Garden Theme in the bedroom.
This is a birdhouse..like a log
cabin..it's on a dowl rod. Then there are 2 textile bobbins wired
together with a bow and a charm around them.
I used a paper mache' birdhouse and covered it with joint
compound. Then I used very thin pieces of cedar for the roof. I then
thinned acrylic paint with water to give it a washed look, like stucco.
I made tiny polymer clay pieces to look like stones to put around the
base of the house. I glued the house to the top of a textile bobbin and
decorated it with dried flowers and a tiny piece of fence I made from
broken craft sticks. I added a gold bow and use it for a decoration on
my table.
I made this from a chipped teacup I had.
Randy built the birdhouse and I painted it! It hasn't had any occupants yet, but we're hoping!
This little birdhouse was a dollar store find. I brought it home, painted and embellished with dry flowers and other goodies.
I bought this,unfinished for $1.99 and painted it to go in my
backyard.What a bargain...I LOVE finding good cheapies!
