I've admired all the recent posts of birdhouses so I had to give it a try.
I got some materials that has been sitting in the garage drying out and printed out Eugen Schlaak's instructions on making a birdhouse ornament. The instructions were easy to follow and within a short time I had my first birdhouse ornament. Now I need to make a few dozen more because the wife wants to give them away for Christmas.
The birdhouse is 6'' tall x 2" wide. The body is mulberry and the roof is cedar. This is also the first time I tried using BOL. It seems to have lost its shine from when I first put it on. I'll probably spray some shellac or lacuer on it to bring back the gloss.
