Cedar Birdhouse

Description

Perfect for garden lovers, this easy DIY birdhouse is a great summer project that both you and the birds will enjoy. Made from western cedar, the wood will weather to a beautiful silver-gray, while the copper roof develops a charming green patina over time. The design uses just eight simple pieces, making it ideal for beginners. Build it by cutting parts from affordable cedar fencing (or a wood of your choice), then sand, glue, and finish nail everything together. The roof is covered with sheet copper and secured with copper tacks for durability and style. The finished birdhouse measures approximately 16" tall, 8" wide, and 7" deep.
