Stone Birdhouse Design & Build
Stone Birdhouse Design & Build
I designed and build this birdhouse with art in mind. I started by designing a face for the birdhouse that includes a red bird with a mountain scene. The design is then created in a program called Lightburn where I create a file that will transfer the image to a ¼" piece of finished plywood. Once the computer and laser burner are connected I burn the image onto the plywood using a Dewalli laser engraver. This image also included the outlined shape need to be cut into the shape of the birdhouse face. I make those cuts and drill a hole where the design indicates, sand the wood and colorize the birdhouse face. The entire face of the birdhouse has been colorized using alcohol inks.
From there I build a frame work around the face of the birdhouse and then add tumbled granite stones with red and yellow hues. The stones carry up to the roof line and down on the base which is permanently fixed. I drill a hole into the bottom of the birdhouse for cleaned and raise the base with maple feet. The roof is made from cedar and very water resisitant. Once the birdhouse is assembled I add an exterior finish the the birdhouse.
Although the birdhouse is functional it is also a piece of art and will please people who enjoy both birds and art. I suggest that people put them on a cover porch where birds once comfortable with the owners will feel safe.
Birds will love the spacious interior and natural wood.
I design and create fine crafts and furniture using organic materials such as wood, stone, granite, metal, glass and other materials. I make birdhouses, pens, lamps, charcuterie boards, shaving sets and a bunch of other things. Creating and sharing is what this site is about. I hope you enjoy the things that I have made. Comment if you want to see how I have made one of the items on my web site.
