The first two interior paintings in the hedgehog feeding station.
-
The floor decorations starting to go on now
I got the epoxy layer on the floor of the nesting box this morning so that's as good as finished now.
The last of the tiny paintings get done in the baffles tomorrow, I just need the coats on them atm to thoroughly dry.
I need a few more dry flowers for the floor then I can assemble it all and get it poured. Nearly there! Couple of days left at most -
feels Japanese in the intricate details. i can draw stick people💪
@m3t00 The floor flowers are real pressed flowers rather than painted, I can't take credit 😅

A portrait of Egg, a vase of flowers, a horse because paintings of horses are always fancy and high class, and the hedgehogs' very own original kandinsky

This is such a delightful idea, and I've been truly enjoying following along with your current project.

@babe Will there be a grand opening? Could Egg nibble the cordon?

@babe Pretty!

@babe Also I learned a new word: baffle [noun].

A little over 2 weeks later and the Igel's Nest (hedgehog nesting box) is finished!
Undercoated in mold resistant stain blocking paint, made fully waterproof by 2-3 layers of enamel based paint, topped off with an acrylic based paint for colour and then covered with a few layers of polyvine varnish. This thing should now outlive me!
With a solid resin floor it also makes it easy to keep clean and won't be attractive to woodlice.

@babe it looks fantastic!

Just a tiny bit overkill but at least i won't have to worry about a hedgehog moving in and deciding it's also his toilet anymore.
Cleaning that when it's porous wood, not a fun experience.

@babe good choices. Nothing wrong with overkill.

The Urch Inn (main hedgehog feeding station) so far, before the baffles are added, resin floor poured, and roof put on.
With the baffles now moved from inside to outside, there's now considerably more space than there used to be

@babe The Urch Inn and The Igle's Nest are top tier names.
