First, I lightly sanded them with fine grit sand paper to remove loose surface material and dirt. Then I wiped them with a soft, damp cloth and put them in the sun to dry.
Next, I drilled holes for the birdies to enter. I stuffed paper towels in the holes so that the spraypaint would not get inside.
I painted them with Krylon Indoor/Outdoor spray paint in Almond. I put on two coats and let them dry a day between coats.
Now they are ready to hang, but I want to make them a little more pretty first, so I am brainstorming on how I want them to look.
