I love birdhouses and so many of you do too! This will be a thread for showing off all of ours.

If you want to do a tutorial for a birdhouse, please don't post it here, but show it off in a thread of it's own so we can learn and search for it later.

A friend made this one for me. The older it gets, the better I like it.



This is a clay one (they kind that's fired in a kiln) made for me by a garden friend, JoAnne.

Uh oh ... don't get me started on birdhouses ... I started a small collection one year and friends and family have helped with the expansion!





















Almost forgot this one ... it fits:

Lin ~~~ WOW! I love them all...I used to collect them too but gave all but my favorites away when I moved into a smaller place.

My very very favorite of yours is the one with the copper roof. Thanks for sharing with us!

You are welcome! I have downsized a little bit, trying to keep just the "special" ones ... the problem is, they are all special in their own way! Some of the birdhouses that have been outside for years have weathered and disintegrated over time. I've had birdhouse planters, shelves, wreath's with attached birdhouses, signs with birdhouses depicted on them, and flags too.

Here's a few more:



























Ok, I've hogged this entire thread ... Sorry. I hope someone else will share their birdhouses! I'm done, promise!

They will...they haven't found it yet! In your atest bath my favorite is the one that has a metal top, with strawberries on the side.

You have far more than I ever had. I love it!! I'll post more of mine later too.

Nice, all of them. Love birdhouses....

Post yours Charleen!

How you know I got any birdhouses? I'll have to get pictures. I got a Fairy house I made. Want a picture of it????

Of course Charleen we want to see picture of your fairy house.

BEAUTIFUL birdhouses

And yes, Charleen, please DO post your fairy house!

I'd love to see your fairy house Charleen!

Okey Dokey, here is couple of pictures Fairy house..

with a critter man


Every house needs a few flowers.....

Cute fairy house, Charleen!!! I imagine birds could go in too.

My friend Joann made this one for me too. Everyone that sees it wants it! Its about 29" high and the detail is amazing! I keep it in the house.

I love the unusal shaped Birdhouses. I'll have to go to the barn to see if I got a Southwestern Birdhouse I made. Been a long time.



This one is made with Car tag licenseplate for roof.

Neices painted this one, moved off and left it. got a new home with me now....


Blue bird house, Hubby made for me.



We have quite a few mounted on fenceposts....

Charleen: Love the fairy house with the little person and flowers ... how creative! And, those outdoor bird abodes are wonderful as well. After both my mom and dad passed I saved their license tags to use for birdhouse roof's but have not done anything with them yet and it's been six years, LOL.

Boo: Now, that is really special. Your friend did a nice job with that house and I can see why everyone wants one ... ME Too!!

I have an old Owl house that my youngest sister gave me for my birthday one year ... no owl's ever took up residence in it because it wasn't placed high enough in the tree but some other birds built a nest in there for awhile. Woodpeckers made the hole larger but never moved in and squirrel's checked it out often. It fell from the tree during a storm years ago and now sits on the ground beneath the Philodendrons:

I love all of them! I don't think I could pick a favorite, so many cute ones.

I love all the BH, I have close to 150 and I don't think I can say which one I like the best. Except maybe one of the gourds that my DGD painted for me years ago.

I love the vibrant color of this, Robin! 150 bird houses!!!! WOW!

Told you I loved them and almost all of them are functional and outside with nests in them.

oooh! I love the bird houses! I left all but two of mine behind at the old house
