In the Workshop: A project for the wall of my house

While birdhouse spotting yesterday I stopped to photograph birdhouses in a garden and saw a unique unit over my right shoulder.


["I spotted this one south of Aylmer, Ont.": photos GH]

A project was born, for which I have most of the necessary ingredients on hand.

I have a blank wall.


I have a cedar birdhouse built from rescued lumber for that piece of blank wall.


I have a slab of mulberry to attach to the wall as I did on the front porch.


I also have lengths of lumber to frame the slab of mulberry, as I did to an identical slab - now on the front porch.


I have nails, screws, tools, and a workshop.

I just need two - three hours of free time.

What’s that, Ollie? You want to feed the birds and sweep out the workshop and dig in the garden and run through the sprinkler?

If you hear my saws at work later tonight you’ll know I’m busy in the shop.
