Let your garden shine with a cheerfully designed birdhouse in fresh spring-like colours. With this nesting box the birds have a nice home. We will show you how you can beautifully design the raw wood singing bird nesting box with Napkin technique and outdoor colour. With this you offer the birds protection and shelter and at the same time you have a beautiful decoration in your garden.
How do I proceed to paint the birdhouse?
First, prime the raw wood of the birdhouse with white outdoor colour paint. Then apply some granite paint to the roof of the nesting box and let it dry well.
How do I apply Napkin technique ch to the birdhouse?
Peel off the top layer of Napkin and carefully fix it to the front of the bird house with a little Napkin varnish . Now paint everything with the Napkin varnish . After drying, the excess edges can be carefully removed with a scalpel. On the edge of the roof you can glue the flower motives of Napkin in the same way.
Extra tip:
- let the applied colours dry thoroughly before you start with Napkin technique
- after the Napkin is dry, wipe the grey outdoor paint slightly over the side edges of the birdhouse. This gives the birdhouse a nice Patina.
