An outdoor birdhouse, a great indoor décor piece (bring the magic of Alice in Wonderland to a kids room!) As an outdoor birdhouse, it’s primarily designed for wren, a cavity nester common all over North America. Wren prefer to nest in a protected area such as under a porch or breezeway, so hang your birdhouse in a protected place and it will also be protected from the elements!

Your birdhouse will last in a protected place such as a porch or inside. If placed in direct sun, colors will begin to fade within a month as with any dyed fabric, but the opening and body will keep its shape in even the hardest weather.
