DIY Birdseed Ornaments: An Easy and Fun Nature Craft for Kids!
This fun and easy DIY Birdseed Ornaments is a perfect craft project for the whole family! Soon after, you will be the best neighbors to the local birds around you. One of the many things that I love seeing is that my 2 year old daughter, Tenley, has instantly inherited our love for nature. This includes the great outdoors and animals, especially the birds and squirrels we see outside our patio.
We are very grateful to live in an area where we occasionally see birds, squirrels and more right outside our patio. Our patio overlooks a creek and is surrounded by oak trees. We love where we live! Lately, Tenley has been wanting to feed her leftover snacks to the birds that stop by our balcony. Like these peas!
This led us to search online for bird houses and bird feeders, because we obviously want to welcome more birds to our balcony (could I sound more like a crazy “bird lady?” haha), but then we thought…no, let’s get creative and DIY something with things we may already have at home!
DIY Birdseed Ornaments:
Materials
Bird Seed
Peanut Butter
Bread (our absolute favorite to eat!)
Parchment Paper
Jute Ribbon
*Optional: Star Wars Lightsaber Chopsticks (they are so cool!)
Video Tutorial
Step 1: Toast your slice of bread
Step 2: Place your cookie cutter onto the bread.
You can use any shape you’d like! We decided to use this cookie cutter.
Step 3: It’s time for peanut butter!
Start with one side of the bread first.
Step 4: Add the birdseed to the peanut butter side.
Then repeat steps 3 & 4 to the other side of the bread.
Step 5: Time to poke a hole in the bread for the string.
Yep, I used our Star Wars lightsaber chopsticks for this! How cool is it?!
Step 6: Hang your beautiful creation for the birds!
Ta-da! You just easily made a fun and easy DIY Birdseed Ornament! Sit back and enjoy seeing happy birds come your way.
