Looking through my kitchen window everyday I get a chance to look at this beautiful once discarded  dollhouse turned into a birdhouse estate named Pear Mansion. I found this dollhouse on the garbage in a nice neighborhood. When I seen it I knew  it would make a fabulous birdhouse. All I needed to do was divide the compartments, put the holes and paint etc. The pear tree in the backyard had died and needed to be cut down, but the tree certainly made a wonderful post!  Within the hour the birds were checking it out! There are now two families living in the garage; there are two holes/compartments and one family on the other side.
