Bird Feeders – Popsicle Stick Platform

Items Needed

Instructions

Stack and glue popsicle sticks together to create a base for the bird feeder.
Use popsicle sticks to build up the sides by gluing them in a square or rectangular shape.
Once the structure is dry, cut a piece of twine or string and attach it securely to both ends of the feeder for hanging.
Fill the feeder with birdseed.
Hang the feeder outdoors where birds can easily access it.

Paint or Decorate: Paint the popsicle sticks in bright colors or patterns before assembling for a personalized touch.
Add a Roof: Use additional popsicle sticks to build a small roof to protect the birdseed from rain.
Shape Variations: Instead of a square or rectangle, create unique shapes like a triangle or hexagon for the feeder.
Add a Perch: Attach a small dowel or popsicle stick horizontally as a perch for the birds.
Multilevel Feeder: Build a multi-level bird feeder with additional platforms for more space.
Natural Look: Leave the popsicle sticks unpainted and add small twigs or moss for a rustic, nature-inspired design.
