The front view...

I covered the Box & Bird Hoses with the Flower Fairies Collection....

I glued the Corrugated paper on to chipboard, then painted it with clear gesso. I then glued the box onto the Corrugated base. I then glued a DA doily onto the left corner, as a start of the flower cluster.On top of the Doily I glued on the DA Leafy Stems, that I had altered using DA crackle paint, LuminArt Silk paint & Prills. I then glued the Swirl Vine & Lavender onto the base, that I had altered as I did the Leafy Stems. Final step was to build the cluster, using dyed silk ribbon, burlap, rustic blooms & the cut out Flower Fairy....

I used DA Fancy Trim #5, as a border on the front & sides of the box...

Here is a close up of on of the Birdhouses, using the Flower Fairies Cutout Sheet, DA Mini Bricks, small Branch & 49 and Market Mini Blooms...

The other 2 Bird Houses, using DA Vase, Laurel Sprigs, Leafy Stems & Mini Lamp posts...

I made a cobblestone pathway, using DA mini Cobblestone, that I applied the clear crackle on, then I glued Prills in between the cobblestones...

Here are a few more close ups...

I used Flower Fairies Lost Postcard for the inside of the box...

This is another altered Birdhouse I did, then took photos of it & did a LO...

The Dusty Attic used:

Wagon Wheels

Water Pumps

Industrial Scroll

Mini Branches

Fancy Trim #1

Decorative Frame #1

For the roof I cut out strips from the BS of Conservatory sheet, then covered wood sticks with the strips, inked the edges, glued the sticks on to the roof & applied Clear Crackle Varnish. Once the crackle dried I glued on the DA Borders...

I used lots of clear crackle paint on the bird house & embellishing..

The Bird House is embellished with cut outs from the Heirloom Cut Out Sheet, 49 and Market Basic Roses, Lavender, Prills, Dusty Attic Chipboard, Prima Metal Clock & Prima Bling...

Once I completed the birdhouse, I took photos in our garden & did a LO, using the most of the same products that I had used on the bird house...

String Frame Set Small

Prills: https://www.thescrapbookdiaries.com/product-category/art-mediums/page/5/

I used: Stop Whinning, Third Place, Plum Crazy & A Penny Saved

I trimmed the edges of the Heirloom Sheet, cut out a circle in the center, then distressed the edges. Under the circle I glued a piece from the Serenity Sheet, then glued  this onto the BS of the Conservatory Sheet. the next step was to do some hand stitching.  I glued the barrel on to a piece of chipboard, then painted it with clear crackle...

I love Prills & on this LO I used 4 different colors of prills...

The paints used are LuminArt Silks..The Barrel flower clusters, are from the cut out sheet, plus DA flower buds, mini branches & mini blossoms..

Thank you so much for taking the time to look....Rachelle
