In this handicraft instruction we show you how to easily create your own feeding station for birds.
At this extraordinary feeding station all parts are first primed with Outdoor Color and then marbled. Both colours are weatherproof and lightfast, so you can hang the finished feeding station outside without hesitation.
And so it goes
Drill a hole in the middle of the saucer with an 8 mm masonry drill and drill Wooden discs holes in four with a 6 mm wood drill.
Prime all parts with white Outdoor Color and let dry.
Line a bucket with a bag and fill it with water.
Drop red and white onto Colour for marbling the surface, draw a pattern with a wooden skewer and, one after the other, slowly dip Wooden discsthe primed parts (except the round stick and the ) and pull them out again quickly. Drop on new Colour for marbling ones before each immersion.
Important: Wear disposable gloves and make sure that you do not splash paint on your clothes.
Let it dry.
Saw off approx. 25 cm round from bar, pre-drill a 2 mm hole at both ends, fix a wooden disc with a screw eye at one end
Put the bell pot on the round rod, place the saucer on it upside down, then fix a wooden disc with a screw-eye at this end as well.
Since the round rod has a larger diameter than the hole in the saucer, it will hold by itself as soon as the wooden disc is fixed with the screw eye.
Turn a wreath of decoration-Willow , tie it together with scraps of fabric in some places and place it over the bell pot.
Knot something Jute yarn in the screw eyelets at the top and bottom, thread Wooden balls it on and fix it with a wooden disc and a double knot. Decorate the overhanging part with Jute yarn and fabric Wooden discs remnants.
Knot a loop to hang it up.
Tip: As an alternative to the white ones, large slices of bark Wooden discs also look very nice.
