A magical 'Build Your Own' Bird Nesting Box project craft kit, designed and manufactured in the UK from sustainable 6mm birch plywood.
In a beautiful and striking dove-tail joint box construction, this 12-piece self-assembly Fairy Garden Birdhouse kit has been designed to make it easy for you to create an attractive, sturdy and functional nesting / roosting habitat for common birds in your garden.
The Kit is supplied flat packed for you to assemble, and comprises:
A decorative scalloped roof with protective overhang
A 28mm entrance hole with optional perch, and heart-shaped observation / ventilation hole
Pretty Fairy Door and Fairy Window details on the face
A 3-point secure fixing system, with fixing guidelines
A floor with drainage holes
Simple building instructions
The kit has been designed around RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) recommendations for bird nesting boxes, with a 28mm entrance hole ideal for most of the tit family - blue tits, coal tits, great tits etc, and also the common tree sparrow. It includes optional perch (recommended for use only where other predators don't have easy access to the nest box).
The interior of the box is sized to suit these nesting birds, and four discreet drainage holes have been provided at the base to prevent moisture build-up. The box has an overhanging roof to protect the entrance hole and perch from rain.
An additional small heart-shaped hole at the top has been designed to allow you to observe your bird guests with a bird box camera (not included) without disturbing them, and it also provides extra ventilation.
Once constructed, the bird house can be fixed into place using our secure three-point fixing system. We have designed this to be suitable for either screws or wire, to ensure that the box is nice and stable for your new guests.
The flat-packed kit comes with simple assembly instructions and makes an ideal wildlife project. Assembled Dimensions: 175mm wide, 220mm tall, 100mm deep.
We recommend varnishing your new bird box (exterior only) for extra protection.
You will need a good quality wood glue for the construction of the box. This is cheaply and readily available from craft shops and hardware stores.
