The top bar hive is finished, and hubby is so proud. Now if only some bees would move in... I'm craving honey!
It's been painted in white on the legs and roof with metal flashing on top. The rest of the hive is untreated pine oiled with orange oil, linseed oil and bees wax to hold up to weathering and attract some bees.
