Welcome to the Project Birdhouse blog!


Welcome to the Project Birdhouse blog. Whether you came here because you know me or happened across one of my birdhouses, I hope you'll enjoy my project as much as I do.

I enjoy painting birdhouses in my spare time. I ran out of friends and family to give them to, so I decided to start sending them around the world as friends, coworkers and acquaintances took trips. They send me back pictures of the birdhouse in its new locale, and it gets posted to the Google Photos album and Instagram accounts linked below.

The birdhouses always make people smile and bring a touch of whimsy to their new home.

If you're traveling somewhere and want to bring a birdhouse with you (or would like one for your home), email me at ProjectBirdhouse@gmail.com, and I can send you a birdhouse to help expand the project.

Enjoy!

South Beach, Miami

One of JP's birdhouses got to travel along to the SOBE Wine & Food Festival in South Beach (Miami).  While it obviously did not get to taste any of the delicious food/wine, the birdhouse did get to enjoy the beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean:



Iron Chef/Chopped judge Geoffrey Zakarian even got in on the birdhouse action by autographing a birdhouse:

"To JP from GZ"
Needless to say, this birdhouse did not get left in Miami but now resides in JP's personal collection.

Oahu, Hawaii

Friend-of-the-blog Denver took his birdhouse along on a challenging 4.5 hour hike up Mt. Olympus in Oahu, Hawaii.  These views from the top made all of the effort worthwhile!

Not a bad vista for a birdhouse to enjoy

Enjoying sundowners, watching the sun shimmer on the water at Cheeseburgers in Paradise in Maui:

No birdhouse in this picture - just beautiful sun shimmering on the water, one of JP's favorite places in the world to have an afternoon cocktail
