3. Secure the pieces together with nails and glue.
4. Add a piece of wood at the top for a roof, then attach it to the sides.

For decorations, add a few colorful flowers and ribbons around the edges. You’ll have to add bird feed and water for the birds which will make your backyard a great hangout spot.
Place your birdhouse in a tree or near your garden, and watch as birds visit it during the warm spring season!
Macrame Plant Hangers
Add some boho vibes to your home with a macrame plant hanger.
Using rope and wooden dowels, you can create a macrame pattern with basic knots to hang your favorite plants.
These plant hangers look beautiful hung in any room or even in the garden.
Here’s how to make the macrame plant hangers:
Start by measuring and cutting your rope into four even lengths. Fold each rope in half and tie a knot at the top, leaving a long tail.
Secure the dowel in the center using a lark’s head knot and begin to tie square knots along each side, alternating between the two sets of ropes.
