After crafting the cardinal bird feeder, I found immense joy in curating themes for birdhouses. One destination that has long intrigued me is "The Temple Bar" in Ireland. Although visiting remains on my bucket list, I channeled my enthusiasm by painting a birdhouse reminiscent of this iconic pub.
With a proud Irish heritage and a fondness for spirits, I felt compelled to create yet another birdhouse, affectionately named "The Shamrock Pub."
These birdhouses were a huge hit during last year's Christmas festivities, particularly during our family's white elephant gift exchange. Witnessing the excitement and banter over who would claim them was truly a delight. Ultimately, my eldest ended up with them all, now proudly showcased in her kitchen.
Following a special request, I embarked on another painting endeavor, this time capturing the essence of San Francisco, a city close to someone's heart. Each side of the birdhouse was adorned with beloved landmarks and cherished memories from the vibrant streets of SF.
