I've done some searches but haven't come up with anything yet. I'm looking for some examples of stands for these little birdhouse ornaments.,or where is a good place to purchase the stands. I would love to make my own but I need some ideas. I know it's early but I want to be ready for christmas this year. Thanks.

Excellent stand, Tom. Is that #4 bare copper wire?

No ... but that'd likely work just as well. I got an inexpensive 1/8" dia brass-plated ~10" dia ring at a local craft store and cut it in half then carefully reshaped one of the halves to the gentle curve shown in the photo.
