Children's Book Birdhouse

"A bird doesn't sing because it has answer, it sings because it has a song." -Maya Angelou

I grew up reading Little Golden Books.  From the Pokey Little Puppy to Sesame Street books, they were short easy reads for a beginning reader.  With spring being here, I decided to pay homage to these books by making one into a bird house.  

Materials:

• Bird House
• Book
• Scissors
• Mod Podge
• Paint Brush
• Hot Glue or E6000

Directions:

1. Carefully cut the pages away from the cover.
2. Cut pages to fit the sides of the bird house.  
3. Use the Mod Podge to attach them to the pages to the house.  
4. Attach pages to the underside of the book cover with Mod Podge as well.
5. Once all surfaces are covered in pages, go over once more in Mod Podge. 
6. Using hot glue (or E6000) attach the book cover to the bird house.  (Hot glue didn't hold the best.)

I love Winnie the Pooh!  I think my bird house might just end up staying indoors.  This would be very cute in a play room or nursery.
