Rose Covered Birdhouse

I have always loved decorating those little wooden birdhouses. Over the years, I have made plenty for my own garden, swaps, gifts, etc. They are a relatively fast and easy project that can be done in so many ways!

In the Use it or Lose it thread, @madebyBeaG offered a bunch of tiny little resin/plastic roses. She sent me such a generous amount! I normally use them in shrines, but I got this idea to use them to make myself a little birdhouse (decorative only!).

First, I painted the entire thing with a pale orange. I made the the walls and base a bit darker. Then, I went to town gluing the roses all over the roof and some on the sides. A little paint embellishment and a new ribbon (it came with a white cord), and it was done!

Thanks for looking! And, thanks @madebyBeaG for giving me the supplies to make it happen!

So pretty and sweet! I have had a birdhouse project swimming around a little in my brain and this adds some inspiration should I decide to pursue it!

I did a tiki hut one for @kittykill years ago and have always meant to make one for myself, so that is my next one!

This is the sweetest! The tiki hut lives in our tiki bar. I get to look at it every day and smile.
