Repurposing an old chandelier as a bird feeder is a great way to add charm to your garden.
Materials Needed:
- Old chandelier
- Spray paint (optional)
- Small bowls or cups (if the chandelier doesn’t have suitable ones)
- Strong adhesive or epoxy
- Bird seed
- Chain or string for hanging
Steps:
- Clean the chandelier thoroughly.
- If desired, paint the chandelier with spray paint in the color of your choice and allow to dry completely.
- If the chandelier doesn’t have suitable bowls to hold the seeds, attach small bowls or cups to the arms of the chandelier using strong adhesive or epoxy. Allow to set.
- Fill the bowls or cups with bird seed.
- Attach a chain or string to hang on the chandelier.
- Hang the chandelier from a tree or a sturdy hook in your garden.
Tips:
