Birdhouse Box Bird Feeder

January is a great month to start fresh. I’m making small changes both inside and outside my home. I added a bright pop of color to my backyard with a new bird feeder. I love starting my day with a hot cup of coffee as I look out my kitchen window and observe this fun project and all the happy little birds.

Supplies:
Walnut Hollow Birdhouse Box
Walnut Hollow Creative Versa-Tool
Plexiglass
Decorative Metal Ribbon
Coloring Book
Carbon Paper
Acrylic Paint
Heavy Duty Stapler
Hardware (Pan Phillips Screws, Acorn Nuts, Corner Plates, Washers, Eye Bolt)
Pencil
Paintbrush

Step One: Transfer a fun coloring book design onto the back and sides of the Birdhouse Box using a pencil and carbon paper.

Step Two: Insert the Tapered Point tip into the Creative Versa-Tool and burn the traced design into the wood.

Step Three: Paint the roof, front edge, and inside top shelf area of the Birdhouse Box with acrylic paint. Let dry.

Step Four: Cut two pieces of plexiglass; one piece to fit inside the box and one piece to fit across the bottom of the box. Attach the plexiglass pieces to the box.

Step Five: Staple decorative metal ribbon to the roof of the birdhouse.
