Confession Time. Using chicken nesting boxes in your homes left us scratching our head a little.

How do you get one clean enough to bring into your house?

Then, we checked out how our Instagram friends were using them in their decor, and we have fallen for them as we think you will if you haven't already.

CHICKEN NESTING BOXES

We're excited to invite you on this transformation journey and hear how it leaves you inspired. Chicken nesting boxes have so many different uses and aren't just for hens anymore.

Miss Mustard Seed

Miss Mustard Seed writes a blog that we follow, and are often inspired by her and how she decorates her home (inside and out).

So, when we saw the craze for repurposing chicken nesting boxes, we thought we'd see what her take was on them. She has written a post about how she made a potting bench and incorporated a chicken nesting box on top of an old workbench. It turned out lovely, and the nesting spots make a great storage bin!

Using a nesting box as part of a buffet is genius! It makes the perfect top to a floating hutch.

Laura lives on a farm, so there is no doubt she has the farmhouse look down pat.

You met Resa before in our Farmhouse Kitchen post (where she allowed us to show you her watermelon stand kitchen island).

Now, she's allowed us to peak inside her dining room where she uses a nesting box to hold plates and such.

And check out that vintage scale while you're looking!

Mary and her family are working toward living a minimalist lifestyle. Using a chicken nesting box as a bookshelf is an excellent step toward their goal! They make great little nooks for all sorts of things.

Struggling to find the right headboard for her family's bungalow, Julie came up with the idea to use this nesting box.

We think it turned out great!

It's rustic, and it gives this an out-of-the-box use for this piece (pun intended).

Upcycling a nesting box gave Thea more closet space and is brilliant! She's put many great things in it, and it's inspiring to become a shoe station to hold and organize the numerous pairs of shoes you have.

Look at this beautifully placed chicken nesting box! Hanging on a shiplap wall is exactly where it belongs.

We've seen a nesting box used in a potting station, but maybe you don't have a green thumb. That doesn't mean you can't enjoy flowers around your home! This little vignette area brings so much life to this room.

Down In The Boondocks

Isn't this little curtain accent so sweet on this nesting box of Amber's? The rusted, time-worn stamp of the farm over time gives this such a rustic chic look. Not to mention the farmhouse sign looks perfect hung right on top!

A Beautiful Purpose

Jacey runs an upscale antique boutique and has styled this chicken nester as a bookshelf. It's fun to be able to use the shelf on top to display more antique farmhouse type pieces.

We're not entirely off our rockers.

We know it's not Christmas.

But, we loved the way this nesting box was used as a Christmas Advent Calendar. Thinking outside of the box is one of the things we love most about the farmhouse community.

Just think.

How many different events could you countdown to using this chicken nesting box? Days until schools out, days until vacation, days until a birthday.

The possibilities are endless.

We have to admit, just doing this post and gathering together all of these adorable ways to incorporate chicken nesting boxes into your farmhouse has caused us to fall head over heels with the idea of bringing one into our home.
