I design birdhouses in many interesting shapes, sizes and themes. Here are a few of my favorite ones.

Apple Bird House

Apple bird house with worm perch is made from an Apple gourd. The leaves were cut from a gourd and a gourd stem was used for the worm perch.

Maple leaf BH

Maple Leaf Birdhouse is made from a kettle gourd. An added extension is above the entrance to protect the opening from the elements.

Patriotic BH

Patriotic headquarters for our little feathered friends. It is decorated with posters and signs around the house that read, "Bird's Of America Headquareters" placed over the doorway, God Bless America, Chirp for America and Mail Delivery-Pidgeons apply here. Appropriate size for a house wren or chicadee.

Barn Birdhouse is made from a bottle gourd. Farm equipment, flowers, a horse inside the barn and many other little accents are painted into this design.

Cottage BH

Wall Sconce

A Cottage Birdhouse with a sign that reads, "Every Birdie Welcome". All little birdies like to have a home of their own to raise their family and they love to make a home in a gourd.

No, not a birdhouse, but I wanted you to see this wall sconce. Hope you like it!

I made it for myself one day when the wall piece I had hanging in my hall got broken..so I thought..why not a gourd?
