Google,  *Free Birdhouse Plans*  you will get several options.  This is how we got our patterns.  We have made several birdhouses.  Here's a couple we did for our neighbors who had given us a lot of scraps of wood.

Nice idea using the handles for the birdhouses.

Well done

yup, but instead of making little trim pieces like they have I made up a design where I cut the trim as one solid piece.

Here is the one my husband finished last night.  It is for a titmouse.  Used a basic pattern then turned it into a Railroad station.

Thank you.  It's fun using scraps of wood to make the little details plus I am always on the looking at yard sales etc for little doodads for our houses.  This one he is going to sell.  We did some research and it should sell for about 35.00.  We have several others and he is going to put them on Etsy and see if they will sell.

Me and My kids make these and they are a lot of fun.  Also once the cedar gets a little weathered it looks like a real outhouse.
