This project is a great way to use mix and match cups and saucers and thrift store finds.
Start by gluing the teacup to the saucer.
Secure a cup in the center of a saucer using hot glue.
Tip your teacup onto its side and place on top of the glue.
Let dry for 2 hours or according to directions step 4.
Using jute twine hang the bird feeder by the handle of the teacup.
Fill cup and saucer with bird feed.
Make it sit on a long copper pipe length fixed in the garden ground and start using it as a diy bird feeder.
Where the teacup goes on the saucer totally depends on the shape of the teacup and how it fits onto the saucer.
Then holding the teacup by the handle press the cup down into the saucer.
Hold for about 30 seconds.
Make sure the cup is at the back half of the saucer so there is room for the birdseed to spill out in front of the cup.
Squeeze some of the glue onto the edge of your saucer.
You will need to let it sit for about 24 hours before you hang it outside.
