White Pine Birdhouses and More (2)

Paint Job vs Heatwave

Rough-sided white pine houses are easy to assemble

I have four white pine barnboard birdhouses in progress. Two will display planed lumber, two will still be rough. Their assembly is partly finished and it is time for first coats. Once two coats are dry I will attach raw roof slats and decide on colours for those as well.

The planed surface of these two houses were easy to paint

Rough-sided houses are harder to paint, so I used a blue wash

More to follow, unless I fall asleep due to London's heatwave.
