Blinging My Birdhouse!

It's here -- Birdie Day!

Don't forget to visit Karla and Beth's sites for even more links to great birdhouses!
Here are my contributions! "House of Sunshine" and "Rapunzel's Tower" are available. I will have a drawing from comment entries made by Monday, March 31 (and announced April 1, which has some fun to it!) for "House of Grapes," a mini-house (the last one on the post.)

  7. Love the birdhouses! They are all beautiful! The flip flops-cute touch! Makes me want to start altering one of several that I've bought for that purpose. Sadly they will have to wait until another day. Have to work on taxes, yuck!

  10. Hello-
    Just read your message on my blog. Thanks for introducing yourself. I came to Lansing at age 4. For a time lived in NY but moved back in 2000.
    I noticed that one of your 'visited' places was Art & Soul. Are you going this year?
    Wonderful bird houses! I just noticed that some birds are moving into the house we put on a branch of our backyard cherry tree.

  11. Incredible!!! These are wonderfil Jeanie! When do you even have time?? What, with WKAR, ACT's and all the other crafty things you do. I love these birdhouses.They added another touch of spring to our dismal landscape of melting snow and newly accumulating rain and snow. When does this end? Thank you also for reminding me and inspiring me to stop at Horrocks on my way out of town yesterday. I never remember to go there; being clear across town from me but it was worth the stop. Wonderful veggies and fruits. I bought a cute stuffed rabbit and another gorgeous smelly hyacinth to replace the one that gave up its life to scent up my house.

  30. Jeanie, these birdhouses are darling! I love how you used the florals as though they were climbing up the outside. Beautiful! And the shells on the beach house is clever too. Thanks for sharing and for stopping by my blog to say HI.

  39. Jeanie, Love the birdhouses! Each one is a masterful piece of art. The beach B&B is my absolute favorite. I like the idea that the birds have to leave their flip flops at the door before they come into the house. Of course birds wear flip flops when they walk in the sand! Love, Bonnie
