Cinder Block

Cinder Block There is something about this cinder block birdhouse that looks Zen and modern at the same time. Take note, though, that a cinder block is incredibly heavy. You will want to hang this DIY birdhouse from a sturdy tree. Of course, you can also opt to fasten it to a post or simply prop it somewhere stable if you don't like the thought of a cinder block falling from a tree.

Stone

Stone From a cinder block idea, we go to a birdhouse that looks like it has stone bricks. Aren't they lovely? They look like miniature medieval stone houses. To make this birdhouse, you will need to buy a ready-made birdhouse made of wood. You then adhere the stones using sealant. Add roof, weather-proof, and display in your yard.
