This is For the Birds....

I knew that would get your attention...

I made some fun bird feeders that have been around for some time

but yes I am just getting around to making them for myself.

I am so glad I did because I love them now.

My Good Friend Charlie (her real name is Diana)

got together to make these lovelies.

We search high and low

thru goodwill and thrift stores

to find us some lovely

Tea Cups

I recieved one of mine in a swap earlier this year

I knew I wanted to use it for this

when I joined the swap.

Now it has real special

meaning to me coming from a new freind

The directions are as follows

1- 1/2" copper pipe cut to 3 foot lengths

the place you purchase this should cut them for free

and you will have a small section left.. take that too

for a house plant feeder

1- 1/2" copper cap, per pole

E6000 glue

A Fancy Tea Cup

The techinical part:

      1.) With the E6000 glue, glue the cup to the saucer, let dry

      2.) With the E6000 glue, glue the copper cap to the center of the

           underside of the plate, let dry over night

      3.)  Hammer copper pole into flower bed

      4.) Put copper top with tea cup on top of copper pole that you just

           hammered into the ground.

     5.) Fill cup with Bird seed and watch for the birdies to come.

Easiest craft I can share with you.... have fun, make many they look like flowers out there...

Happy Bird Watching
