Birch branch frame with birdhouse

Are you looking for a creative way to spice up your home? With a homemade frame made from birch branches, in the centre of which you place a painted birdhouse, you can create a unique eye-catcher! These step-by-step instructions will guide you through the process and show you how to create a decorative highlight using simple materials.

Step 1: Painting the bird house

First, paint your birdhouse according to your ideas. Here you have a free hand in choosing the colours and shapes. Think about which colours suit your home. Once you have painted the bird house, allow the paint to dry completely before continuing.

Step 2: Shape the frame from birch branches

Now it's time to prepare the birch branches. Lay the branches together in the way you want the frame to look. Then use hot glue to attach the branches to the joints. Make sure you use a generous amount of glue so that the frame holds well.

Step 3: Reinforce the frame with jute ribbon

Once the glue has dried, take a piece of jute ribbon and wrap it crosswise around the joints of the birch branches. This gives the frame extra stability and creates a rustic look.

Step 4: Integrate the birdhouse into the frame

Slide the dried birdhouse into the centre of the frame. Make sure it is well centred. To attach the house, tie the loop of the house to the top edge of the frame.

Step 5: Decorative wrapping

Add the finishing touch to the overall work by wrapping jute cord around the frame to the right and left of the birdhouse loop. This creates a harmonious overall impression.

Step 6: Final decoration

Finally, you can decorate your work with small decorative birds. Attach them to the birch branches or around the birdhouse to create a lively and natural look.
