For your friend's birthday, you can consider the following thoughtful gift ideas based on their love for birdhouse building:
1. Birdhouse Building Kit: This will be a great gift as it will come with everything your friend will need to build their own birdhouse. You can get a complete kit online or at a local store.
2. High-Quality Birdhouse Plan: Your friend may already have basic birdhouse plans or designs, but you can offer them a specialized and more elaborate one which they may not necessarily have. You can find detailed birdhouse plans online or in hobby/craft stores.
3. Birdhouse Building Tools: If your friend is always tinkering with DIY projects, consider gifting them a high-quality birdhouse building tool that they may not already have, such as a saw, power drill or sandpaper.
4. Personalized Birdhouse Sign: A personalized sign that can be affixed outside the birdhouse makes for a lovely gift. It can be engraved with your friend’s name or a message such as "welcome to our garden".
5. Bird Watching Book: Your friend may not just like building birdhouses but may actually enjoy bird watching. Consider a birdwatching book or guide to help them identify the different types of birds that may visit their birdhouse.
6. A birdhouse: A well-crafted birdhouse can also make the perfect gift for your friend. Alternatively, you can pay for a birdhouse making class for your friend to learn new skills and have fun while building their own unique birdhouse.
