Sweet little bird-feeder....

My mom is obsessed with birds. I love them in decor, she loves them in nature. To each his own...

But, she did have a great idea for a sweet little bird feeder I wanted to share with ya'll. See, crafting is genetic...as evidenced by this post :)

My mom took a cute little cup and saucer, and affixed them with some heavy duty adhesive. Then she took a bamboo stick (out of a pack that came from the dollar store...and not to mention the Dollar store has some CU-TE cups and saucers as well!!!!!!) and a nut, and glued them to the bottom of the saucer


And VOILA, instant elegant bird-feeder. Isn't it adorable?!?!?

  2. Now you've got me craving garage sale season even more--so I can find some cute cups and saucers to make a few of these! How adorable would they be lining a walkway? Your mom is very clever!

    (I can just imagine Cai and Peter playing "discus" and launching that across their yard into the neighbors . . . :)

  8. Terrific! I would have thought you needed to drill the cup and saucer. So glad to know there is an easier way!
