Default Two Wrens
The wrens are half-size, 2"x2 1/2" carved from bass wood and painted with acrylics.

The base is 3"x8" pine bark...I may change the base or add on to it, what do you think?

Jax.

Jax, those guys look really nice! I don't think i would change a thing. The base looks great, simple yet shows off the birds. Great job.

Jax,
Those wrens look great! The base is very natural. I wouldn't change anything. Lots of detail in the wrens.
