Large birdhouse made from Vermont barnboards


With the weather being so beautiful, I felt I had to focus on some of the garden things we have currently. This is a gorgeous handcrafted birdhouse, very large. It is made from old Vermont barnboards. It is resting on a table so that it can be at eye level.

A departure for me to buy anything breakable! Someone
asked for a head vase a little while ago, so I figured I would grab one while I had the chance! No chips or cracks!
