About
Create and decorate your own wooden birdhouse in this hands-on creative session. Each birdhouse can be painted and personalised to suit your style, from bright colours to natural designs for outdoor spaces.
You will use paints, pens, and decorative materials to design a unique piece, then finish it for display at home, in a garden, or on a balcony. This activity combines creativity with a simple connection to nature.

This workshop connects to the birdlife around Cregneash and the nearby Meayll Peninsula and Sound area, home to seabirds such as guillemots, razorbills, kittiwakes, and puffins, along with choughs, ravens, and peregrine falcons.
