We love watching birds around here. We love feeding them, too! I was gifted this beautiful piece of driftwood that was just begging to be made into something special, so we tried our hand at making a birdhouse. The hole for the food was made by a few different drill bits. The wood itself is screwed into a piece of plywood for the base, large enough to give it balance. Before we screwed it in we applied some wood glue for good measure.;) The top is simply screwed on and has held so far. We found some cute little bricks at Menards for $.45 ea. and they dressed it up like I was hoping. It's a bit more rustic than I had thought it would be, but I love it and the birds seem to as well!
