Homemade Bird Feeders

Yesterday Jacq and I made these super easy bird feeders. I got the idea for this from my Cheerios Cookbook that I got for Christmas.

What you need:
Sugar ice cream cone
Peanut butter
Knife or spoon to spread the pb
Cheerios
Bird seed
Pipecleaner

Poke a small hole in the bottom of the sugar cone. Tie a knot at one end of your pipecleaner and thread it through the bottom of the ice cream cone with the cone upside down. Like this.



Now spread a layer of pb over the cone and add cheerios.



Now sprinkle on the birdseed. Jacq had fun doing this. We hung ours on our porch. But if you don't want birds on your porch then hang it in a tree!

Our finished product.
