DIY Miniature Birdhouses in Two Scales – A Sweet and Simple Balsa Wood Project

If you’ve ever dreamed of adding a tiny splash of charm to your dollhouse garden or fairy nook, this little project is for you! Today, we’re making two miniature birdhouses—one in classic 1:12 scale and one teeny-tiny version for extra whimsy. Best part? They’re made from lightweight balsa wood, so they’re quick to craft and easy on the tools.

We’ll start by cutting the balsa into small panels, then gluing them together into that familiar peaked-roof shape. A dab of paint, a tiny hole for the “door,” maybe even a little perch, and voilà—you’ve got yourself a charming birdhouse. The larger one will look perfect hanging near your dollhouse porch or tucked in a mini garden scene, while the smaller scale could perch on a fairy garden fence, sit in a flower pot, or even become part of a piece of jewelry.

So grab your scraps of wood, a bit of glue, and your imagination. In no time, you’ll have two adorable birdhouses ready to brighten up your miniature world!
