Don't waste winter in front of the TV! Head to the workshop and start planning for the return of spring by tackling these new, cedar birdhouse and planter projects.

BONUS PLANS: Combine them with some of our other popular birdhouse plans, and your yard will be the hub of avian activity all summer long.

Along with the cedar birdhouse and planter projects pictured, also available are plans for three of our most popular Purple Martin projects. Purple Martins are perfect summertime guests as they consume a vast amount of insects, helping to keep you and your guests relatively “bite-free”!

The four projects shown here range from 13 to 16-inches tall and can be built with a minimal amount of material, tools, and skill.
