Hello everyone,
Tonight I'm sharing photos of a mixed-media, altered birdhouse that I just finished. I started with a plain, wooden birdhouse that I bought at the Dollar Store and painted it white. I glued sheet music to the roof, covered it with Mod Podge and sprinkled it with glitter. Then I added all of the other embellishments, which I already had in my craft cabinet, including the vintage buttons. I also already had the little bird, but I painted it white and sprinkled with glitter.
My inspiration for this little birdhouse is Gayle Page-Robak. Gayle is a wonderful mixed-media and digital artist who creates all kinds of beautiful treasures. I've especially always admired her altered birdhouses. To visit Gayle's blog, A Tasteful Touch, click HERE. You'll enjoy your visit, I guarantee!
This was such a fun project! I can hardly wait to make another one, now! Happy Friday, everyone!

How sweet!
Cindy, your birdhouse is beautiful, I want one now. xx jeanetteann
I am so pleased to see your gorgeous birdhouse, Cindy...it is so beautiful. Love your colors they look soft and delicate with the lovely embellishments you added. I love using music sheets for embellishing as well, they seem to add so much to our pieces. Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate them and look forward to seeing your next birdhouse. I love that they seem to look lovely, wherever you put them. Hugs, Gayle
Cindy, that is so cute. I've never seen the bird houses at the dollar store. But then I don't get there very often.
Have a great weekend.

Oh, too lovely! You know I have a birdcage addiction! I have a few on my tree, but there is always room for more, right?
