Bird House Tutorial

 Hey this is Brittney, I am going to show you our Dollar Store project that turned out cuter than we expected!

We got these bird houses and glasses candle stick holders at the dollar store. We primed them with white primer then did them fun colors. 



We also painted the candle sticks I did mine heirloom white and my mom did gloss white. I add some speckles to the top of mine as well. We flipped the candle sticks upside down, and used E600 to hold them together.
Hope you all ENJOY!!!

LINKY!!!

    I love this project! I collect birdhouses and am always looking for new ones. Who would've thought to find them at the Dollar Store? Great idea.
