1. If you receive your mail at your door, replace the mailbox with a top or side opening birdhouse(just for the season)
2. Bring it inside and let the kids pass secret notes to each other
3. If it was a “nude” birdhouse or if it’s a little weathered, spiff it up with a new coat of paint(remember tan, green and brown are best)
4. If it is a top opening birdhouse use it to hold pens, markers, remote controls, etc.
5. If it is a birdhouse that looks like a house make it into a front door decoration(much like a wreath) and add a sign that says “Home Tweet Home”
6. Set it somewhere in a prominent place like your living room or kitchen and use it as a conversation peice about the benefits of having a birdhouse
7. Give it to a family member or neighbor so they can enjoy the upcoming nesting season(and get my FREE birdhouse plans and build yourself a new one=))
***Before trying any of these tips make sure the birdhouse is clean!!! Build a birdhouse…Save a bird!
