How to Build a Modern Birdhouse for the Garden!

I built a FABULOUS birdhouse for my garden at the Northwest Flower and Garden Show!

This simple, modern birdhouse came together in just a few days (dry time was needed) and with minimal mistakes from this newbie woodworker. I will walk you through the process and share what I learned along the way.

Birdhouse Plans
Modified birdhouse #3 from this plan.
To create my modified design, simply cut your top cap and longer side to 10" and 14". This 2" overhang really transforms the look. I eliminated the perch as I wanted a more streamlined look.
