Christmas Bird Houses

Recommended Posts

These are Diana Thompson's Christmas  bird houses 


featured in CWWC magazine November 2011


I like my 'Chains', I don't use the screw hooks.


These Bird Houses are:


Lantern, light bulb, Christmas Tree, Mushroom, Boot, mitten, Ornament and Bell.

  •     The top four are made from Red Cedar​
  •      The middle eight are the Christmas Bird House set made from Spanish Cedar
  •      The bottom row are the J&S or siblings from the middle row houses.

Please comment. Thank you.

Nicely done.  I really like the idea of using, fishing leaders? for the chain on them.  

Love the bird house and I love the chains.   :thumbs:  :thumbs:   Where do you get the chains from Larry?

Marg

Very nice. I like them. How do you fasten the chains?

DW, yer close to right.... NOT fishing leader but 'Fish Hook' earrings.

Rocky and Marg... I buy the chain and fish hook earrings in a craft store...A.C. Moore, Michaels!!!

I straighten the earring and cut to length, add the chain, drill an 077 hole, a dab of super glue.

Sometimes I use 'spring clips' instead of fish hook earrings.

I've noticed that the birds mounted like  you have  is nice but a more slanted look give the impression of a singing happy bird.No worrys i've made 196  of them before i noticed the difference.

and let me tell you they sang happily ever after :razz:
