How to Make a Cookie Cutter Bird Feeder

Make these simple bird feeders for your fine feathered friends.

Difficulty Level: easy      Time Required: 15 minutes


Here's How:
  1. Get a piece of bread. Harder, slate bread would work great!
  2. Find a cookie cutter that fits on as much of the bread as possible.
  3. Use the cookie cutter and cut a shape out of the slice of bread.
  4. Use a straw to poke a small hole in the center of the bread shape.
  5. String the yarn through the hole and tie a loop.
  6. Hang it outside in a tree!
Tips:
  1. Hang your bird feeder at the end of a smaller branch so squirrels don't get it.
  2. Work with the bird seed over newspaper to help make clean up time easier.
