Porch Post Birdhouses

In one of my Diamonds In The Rough! posts, I purchased two new wooden porch posts and told you that I was going to make bird houses with them. Well, I did just that. I found one birdhouse at our church garage sale for $2.
After, It's already in use!
Before on Week 3 Diamonds In The Rough!

This birdhouse I purchased on eBay then painted. It's already in use too!
Attached to Porch Post and set up in the garden.
I already had made this one, so now I have three!

    So sweet. I have a special place in my heart for birds and birdhouses. In my profile, I talk about how I spent my teenage summers making them out of spare wood. These house you have here are way more than I ever made back then. Such a nice thing to do for our little furry friends. :)

    Your bird houses are gorgous but do the birds use them? I am trying to encourage birds to come to my yard. I have water, food, and trees but no bird houses yet.
    Thanks for the inspiration.

    I love the style of those birdhouses, Terry! I have that same exact one in your first photos! I just keep mine in my gazebo on a little table as decoration. Great use for the porch posts and I'm sure the "residents" are happy!

    Superb find. They are so pretty. I have several bird houses but not as elaborate as the one you found. Have a great day.

    Love the birdhouses and how you put it altogether with the posts.
    The birds are probably thrilled with the new homes.

    I love how you are painting the posts. I have several in my yard but the post is so boring! I think next spring I'll clean them all up and put some on something more interesting! Happy Tuesday! New follower! Jules ♥
