On Saturday, December 16, 2023, Jerry Warner (assisted by Todd Carris) will be teaching a class on how to make birdhouse ornaments (see examples included here). The class will be taught in the Learning Center from 9:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. (a little longer if needed). These ornaments can be made from scraps of wood that you probably have laying around your shop as cut-offs from other projects. However, for the class we will provide all of the materials that you will need to complete an ornament that you can take home with you.
