Cool tips on building birdhouses.
Instead of doing the watercolor commission or editing photo shoots…you know, the stuff that pays me, i decided i needed to just PLAY. It is summer after all. My daughter, Sophie, is the only child of mine who joined in the fun.
The windows on the Mother Nature church of peace were painted with nail polish, which really made them stand out.
Directions: go to Michael’s Arts & Craft store & pick out a birdhouse, they are unfinished & cost about 10 bucks. Then go over to the scrapbook paper & chose your theme. Prime & then paint the birdhouse, then use Mod Podge to adhere your paper’s designs/theme. When your done, cover with a few coats of Mod Podge…when that is dry, apply Varnish. They won’t last too long, but the point is to reach your inner child & have fun.
i did.

My Mom collected bird houses; I think my Dad kept a few of his/her favorites. I’d have enjoyed making one with her.

I made a few many years ago. It’s pretty easy and a lot of fun. I know you enjoyed making one with your mom. btw- I am unable to comment on your blogs. I can’t find the comment icon. 😦

I miss your comments! The reply box is down at the bottom of the posts … but someone else sent a message that they had an issue finding it since I’ve moved to a self-hosted WordPress.org platform. (Using another browser – Firefox or Chrome – fixed that problem for them.)
How is de-cluttering/selling house/finding RV going?

I’ll try another browser.
The house is getting down to almost nothing. I’m beginning to get rid of the few remaining pieces of furniture. Someone is coming for one piece today. The shop has a pretty good bit left, but is over 3/4s empty.
