HAVE: I make birdhouses, w/trade 4?

| good morning all. I make classic birdhouses, I have them in both cedar and in pine. I have photos available. They are unpainted so you can 'do your own thing'. I have coming up some that my sister is painting with flowers and vines in the 'One-Touch' style.
These are all new, unused wood, exterior glue and galvanized screws and nails for long life. They are approx. 5.5 wide x 6.5 deep x 10" high to the peaked roof. They have a long 25" heavy wire loop to hang from a tree or shepherd's crook, or I can eliminate that and make them hang from the back so you can put them on a fence or house wall. Or I can just put a single eyehook centered on the roof. They open so you can clean them out once a year.
I will trade for a birdhouse from you, bought or homemade, wood, metal, ?. These are a bit heavy and the postage will be painful so don't get your feelings hurt if I decline your birdhouse. I am looking for birdhouses either with a 'cute factor' for my own yard - or of a style I'd like to copy and make some up!
I am also interested in other yard items and plants. I could use a birdfeeder. A birdbath. Windchimes. Fencing - even used. Obviously some trades are better with local folks! For plants you can take a look at my trade page, keep in mind it is just suggestions, I will consider any offers except houseplants... don't need any. Common orange daylily - have enough. Cannas - have enough. Annuals - no.

| I have a lot of a narcicuss...called Thalia...white blooms, 2 per stem, fragrant. Blooms about the same time as daffodils. Do you have any interest in these? |

still have: i make birdhouses, w/trade 4?

| I still have birdhouses, several sizes, both natural unpainted and painted. Some are hanging, some have a flush back to put on the side of the house, flat on a tree or post. Some I've made: chickadee, robin, flicker, and swallow houses (with entrance on the bottom).
I can also 'customize'. Can send photos. Please offer a trade in the range of fifteen to twenty five bucks for the house, and it will cost me about 8 more to mail it (within the USA). Just wanted to give you an indication.

| good morning Teresa, you have mail. I am surprised my photo above is gone - but I shouldn't be. I forgot you can't alter a PhotoBucket photo... it will disappear. Here are a couple of new photos;
Hut #5
 Pallet Palace
 Seaside Shack
 Whoa! I don't know why they're SO BIG!

Is your birdhouse offer still good? We bought a box of windchimes from the gift shop of a Chinese restaurant going out of business. Have 6 left. They are black and in the shape of turtles. also have a few small oval bonsai dishes.
All new.
