Yes! This hand felted wool Bird House can be hung outside as well as inside, and yes, small birds like wren, chickadees, nuthatch and titmouse may go inside! The 1 1/4 inch hole is sized for use by small birds but can be enlarged to 1 1/2 inch to appeal to larger birds such Bluebirds and Tree Swallows. Birds might also pull at the wool to use in making their own nests. Hang one up and see what happens! The body is made of 100 percent naturally water repellent wool and rarely gets wet inside. Surface moisture from dew, rain or snow quickly dries in the open air. Wool is also naturally dirt and mold resistant. Generally, a good brushing is all that’s needed. Otherwise, work the spot with mild soapy water, then rinse and air-dry. Do not use a washing machine or dryer. Will last forever in a protected place such as a porch or inside where its highly decorative qualities are sure to bring a smile to everyone. Use it as a door greeter, a porch ornament, or to enliven a kitchen, bath or bedroom! 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. Made with sustainably harvested materials including wool, hemp for the hanging cord and a bamboo perch. Hand crafted by skilled artisans working in a fair trade production center in Kathmandu, Nepal. Comes lightly packed with shredded recycled paper to maintain shape. Remove when ready to use. Also includes a clean out door at the bottom.

Yes! It can be hung outside as well as inside! Fun and functional as a decorative item or experimental habitat. It’s made of naturally water repellant, hand felted wool. When it does get wet (mainly on the exterior) it will quickly dry. Wool is also naturally dirt resistant. Made with other sustainably harvested materials including a braided natural hemp hanging cord and a bamboo perch. The 1 1/4 inch’ diameter opening is sized for small birds such as wrens, chickadees, titmice and blue birds. It can be enlarged for larger birds as desired. If birds don’t choose to nest inside they may pull at the wool for material to feather their own nests, but many of our customers HAVE reported seeing wren, chickadees, titmouse and even a blue bird go inside. Comes partially filled with recycled paper to maintain the shape in shipping that can easily be removed (and you’ll see the news from Kathmandu, Nepal, where they are made!). As with any textile, colors will begin to fade if exposed to full sun after 1-2 months. If left fully exposed to rain and all elements the structure will be begin to deteriorate after a year, but it will maintain shape for a remarkable period. If left in a protected place such as a porch or especially inside then it could last forever!
