Provide feathered friends a charming home with elegant, timeless appeal using this Home Bazaar Sunset Cottage Bird House. This robust, wooden dwelling sports striking, light blue coloration for standout allure, while bold accents and highlights add to the unit's delicate appearance. Fancy white columns and a fence feature prominently in front of the home's entrance side, with intricate, decorative detailing on the columns and fence lending ample style to the porch setting. Dark blue shutters add bold contrast as they help white casement windows stand out on both the front and side of the home, and a deep, brown tone makes for a rustic faux entrance door with vintage appeal. A convenient 1.25" diameter entrance hole is situated on one side of the home, giving songbirds an easy access point as they look to enter the habitat; inside the house, a unique, screen ladder makes exiting the roost an easy task. Light brown, natural shingles cover the steep, pitched roof, overhanging the cottage-style house and keeping your feathered friends protected against the rain and other outdoor threats. The lighter hue of the shingles adds fantastic contrast against the darker brown and various blue tones of the home, and ventilation gaps below the overhang ensure a clean and fresh internal roost. The unit's back panel may be easily removed for cleaning and nest checks, and displaying the item is simple, as a mounting paddle with a predrilled hole allows for placement against a fence, tree, or wall. Alternative display is possible by affixing the quaint home's flat base to a pole or post with a suitable mounting plate (not included) for a different method of eye-catching exhibition in your garden. Your backyard décor will be amplified by the variable blue tones of the home, and the familiar cottage look makes for a comforting and classic accessory as you welcome songbirds in need of a home. Boost your bird sanctuary's timeless, lakeside charm and give birds a suitable shelter with the Sunset Cottage Bird House.

Note: Climate and the elements will weather this home and change its appearance over time; however, weathering will add to the item's natural charm without compromising its function. Should you want to preserve the finish (paint) of this house, you should cover it with several layers of a polyurethane product that is recommended for marine use (UV Rated) that will not turn the white paint yellow. You should expect that once left outside, the item will weather and require refinishing.
