Project Instructions
Step: 1
Seal your birdhouse with a dark rust color.
Step: 2
Cover top with Ivy Leaf Wallies®. When wrapping Wallies® around an edge just wet the back, put them on and wrap around the corner. Hold in position for 5 seconds or so to make sure the paste is adhering.
Step: 3
Wrap Picket Fence Wallies® around the bottom edge.
Step: 4
Put on a few Hummingbird Wallies®.
Step: 5
Make a cute little “Vacancy” sign by painting a piece of cardboard, let dry and write the word vacancy in the center. Glue a small piece of twin for a hanger and “hang” on the birdhouse with a dot of glue.
Tips
Because Wallies® are made from vinyl coated paper, we don't recommend that they be used for decorating your outside birdhouses. They are fine on covered porches though!Make shopping easier!
