Since I made a birdhouse last year, does that rule out a different birdhouse for this year?

I have mine mostly complete. It just needs assembly and spraying with CLEAR lacquer. I showed it to my wife, and she was dismayed I was sending it away. Now I have to make her one like it. I've learned a lot doing this, including hollowing something for the first time. Quarter-inch walls are a little thick, but I decided to avoid the "just-one-more-cut" trap. I did manage to destroy my first attempt.

Should I post a group shot and let the group decide or just draw finials?

I'm posted and without drawing finials or straws, changed my mind and I'm not sending a birdhouse again.

It looks like three of us are all in. How many more to join us?

These are too fun to miss out on. I especially love seeing everyone else's take on the design parameters and having the chance to hold someone else's work.
