Looking for Ideas???

[John Terefenko]

I have made the traditional birdhouse ornaments like many of you out there. I am looking for other shapes and design ideas for birdhouses. Has anyone done other designs that they have some photos of??? Or can you describe with a little bit of detail. My mind is blank which of course is nothing new but I am sure there are more creative people out there than me. I was approached by a women today at a craft show and she collects birdhouse ornaments and she loved mine and bought a few and she asked me if I make any other styles and I had to say no. It got me thinking and here I am. Anybody have any other themed houses??? Any help??? Thanks for the replys.

Guess I should have included a photo of mine.

How about a lighthouse style "birdhouse ornament or a church style birdhouse . . . . how about "spun metal" copper roof . . .or with shake shingles . . .

Acorn shaped houses.

Look at all the cylindrical things you pass everyday and image it as a bird house. Many will seem odd, but some might ring a bell. Like an old clay liquor jug, or a fire hydrant. How about a bird house based on a chess piece like a rook?

John, I just posted some yesterday that are different than yours. Your imagination is what holds the answers. Let the wood chips fly!
