Birds bring me so much joy, especially when they are in my garden.
They turn out beautiful and will look great hanging in your garden or yard.
This would be such a fun springtime project.
They will relish this homemade treat, and you will enjoy watching the birds flock to your home!
Then, add 4 teaspoons of gelatin to the water.
Be sure to read the instructions on your gelatin packet.
Some of them may suggest that you use different water to gelatin ratios.
Step 2.Now, place the bird seeds into a bowl.
Add the gelatin/water mixture to your bowl.
Stir well and let the mixture set for a few minutes.
Step 4.Now, it is time to form your bird feeder using the cookie cutters.
To do this, place your cookie cutters onto the parchment paper.
Begin filling them with your seed mixture.
Be sure to press the mixture down firmly into the cookie cutter using your fingers or a spoon.
Step 5.Next, cut your barbecue sticks into pieces.
You will need one for each of your cookie cutters.
Then, place them in the refrigerator for 35-45 minutes or into the freezer for 20 minutes.
Step 7.Now, carefully remove your bird feeders from the cookie cutters.
Step 8.Cut a piece of twine for each bird feeder.
Thread them through the holes.
Step 9.Make a knot at the end.
Step 10.Your bird feeders are complete!
Hang them up and enjoy!
How Long Do These DIY Hanging Bird Feeders Take to Make?
I love this project because it is fun and fast!
In total, it will take you about 40 minutes- 1 hour to make your bird feeders.
Preparing your seed mixture and letting it set takes about 10 minutes.
You should be able to fill the cookie cutters in about 5 minutes.
This part takes 20-45 minutes.
The finishing touches (adding the twine) should take only 2-3 minutes.
What a quick and awesome project, dont you agree?
