Ben's Bird Box


My nephew Ben who is only 9 made a wooden bird
box and came to me to decorate it with him.



We used white acrylic for the main box and a yellow
distress paint for the roof.

We stamped ivy trails over the roof and edges to
add some interest.

The main image on the front is by Stamps Away - blue tit




Inkylicious bird to the sides along with grasses
stamps from Woodware.

Ben was so pleased with his masterpiece, as am I.
