Popular Post Denny Knappen Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Four Miniature Birdhouse Ornaments finished and ready to display. The birdhouses are Ash and the little birds are Purple Heart. I used Pegas #7 Skip blades on the birdhouses and #5 Skip blades on the little birds. The finish is dipping in Shellac further diluted with 50% denatured alcohol.
