Ice Cream Can Birdhouse

 
 
 
I found this old ice cream maker last month.  My husband is making me a birdhouse out of it (I will post about it soon!) 
 
 So this is what we started with. 



Inside of it, was this rusty metal cylinder. A perfect shape for another birdhouse!

 
He made this cedar roof.
 
And cut off the top.
 
 
 
 
 





I found this metal bird at Hobby Lobby. A little bit of surgery to it and it became the finial.

 
 
 
 

 I used my trusty apple cider vinegar and steel wool process to age it.
 

 
 
 
 
 
I then sent it off to my dear friend Heather for her birthday!
 

 

 
Thanks for your visit!
