Description
Handmade Hummingbird House lovingly crafted for indoor or outdoor use by a family of artisans. Turned on a lathe from cherry wood by a master woodworker and then embellished with wood burnings and permanent India inks. The house is made to withstand the elements when placed in a protected area and brought in each winter where they make excellent Christmas Tree ornaments. The house is small at approximately five inches high and two inches wide and while they cannot guarantee that a bird will take up residence in the home you purchase, they include an instruction sheet on care and hanging. Many of their customers prefer to enjoy their Hummingbird Houses as an art object inside their own homes.
