Using a Phillips head screwdriver (not included) and the provided screws, fasten bottom panel and two side panels to the large front and back panels. 2. Fasten roof panels to the top of front and back panels. 3. Hammer a flat head nail (not included) into the surface where you'd like to hang your completed birdhouse. Slide hanging slot on back panel over the head of the nail.
