Bird Feeder

Materials:

You will need: 

 

  • Hot glue gun
  • Twine                       
  • Popsicle Sticks
  • Bird Seed

Steps:

Lay the popsicle sticks out to make a square base.

 

                                                                         Add a line of hot glue along a popsicle stick.   

Glue two popsicle sticks along the edges of the base, parallel to the direction of the sticks making up the base

                                                                 Add dots of hot glue to the corners of the square. 

Complete a square. 

                                                 Add a short line of hot glue along the center of one edge. 

Add several popsicle sticks along the line of glue to make a ledge for birds to perch on. 

                                                               Continue to build squares with the popsicle sticks. 

Each square will add height to your bird feeder. 

                                               Cut four pieces of twine to tie to each corner of your feeder. 

Tie the four pieces of twine together. 

                                                                               Voila!

                           Fill your bird feeder with seeds, hang it up outside, and wait for the birds to come!
