Bird Feeder

First evenly place 7 sticks. Move the end ones away so that they are 1/4 centimeter. Put a drop of glue on each stick and glue across the next seven sticks, starting from the ends, so that we have holes left. Do the second platform the same way but use 1 more stick. Use a paperclip to stiffen the glued sticks and let the glue set. Then take twigs (about 30 cm), divide them into two groups of 2 or 3 twigs and tie a string on them. One at the beginning of the twigs and the other at a distance equal to the length of the stick (minus 1.5 cm).

In the next step, we thread a smaller platform of sticks onto the string from the twigs. Position the twigs so that they face opposite directions. Cut straws for drinks (two longer and two shorter by 2 cm). Thread the cut straws on the string so that on one side were longer straws and on the other shorter. Then thread on the string a larger platform (roof). If you have difficulty threading the string, you can help yourself with a thin wire. Then, tie all the strings together and tie a knot 15 cm above the feeder. Glue a seed lid on the bottom of the feeder and glue wooden bread clips on both sides.
