I hesitate on having a bird feeder of any kind at my house since I have cats. I'd love to feed the birds, but unfortunately I think I'd be feeding my cats too! I absolutely love the bird feeder idea!

We paint them, as you did, and sometimes add glitter and string small beads for garlands. We also use them for bird feeders...spread on peanut butter and roll in bird seed. We also make a centerpiece for our fall table by placing pinecones, acorns, and other such "treasures" that we gather while on nature walks, into a large bowl. Anyone who hasn't used these doesn't know what they are missing! Sharon in SW IA I use pine cones for a variety of projects with the children in my child development home (child care).
