Birdhouses

Nothing fancy, some simple aromatic cedar birdhouses I made for a local consignment shop. All of the lumber started as 4/4, so this was a great project to work my resawing skills :)

Each one measures about 9”x9”x9”. I chose this cedar because Blue Birds are naturally drawn to it. I used a Dremel to carve “Home Tweet Home!” on the front of each, spray painted it black then took a sanding block to remove the spray paint, leaving the carved letters black. I wish I could say my Dremel free-hand is that good and consistent, but I initially used a print out of the words and some carbon paper to get them there :)

Thanks for looking :)
