Welcome to my one of a kind woodworking projects.



Category: Cranbrooks Lawn and Garden Ornaments | Posted: Sat May 27, 2006 11:36 am

Hi everyone, I am john from Cranbrook Ontario.
Welcome to my blog.
I am a 41 yr old semi retired carpenter due to an injury. i used to build houses for over 20 yrs.

I have two children. my son Jamie is 23 yrs old and my daughter Jacquie is 22 . my hobbies are woodworking , gardening, art and nature.

since I am not able to work at a full time i spend most of my time in my shop building unique one of a kind lawn ornaments.

In the past 6 months i have been getting a lot of attention for my Extreme birdhouses. in December i won 1 st place in a woodworking contest on a woodworking site. i also have had 2 newspapers recently do stories on the birdhouses and a major Canadian woodworking magazine wants to do an article.

It all started by one little house that i built. this is the first bird house that i built.it is 2 ft square and has 6 rooms.

Congrats on your successes and your new blog John. So glad you started one. Now we can see photos of your past projects, and future projects maybe?

I really like the idea of extreme birdhouses, I wonder do the birds notice the difference?

I will be reading your blog often John :)

Thank you heathermt75

All my birdhouses are made from reclaimed wood so they look a lot older then they are.
