I am sure that this third one which is bird house made of plastic food containers, you will enjoy more than any other DIY in this blog. Before summer arrives be ready to provide food and shelter to lovely little birds. This project is kid-friendly and you can involve your little one too. Let’s start here:1. Gather your supplies
1. Cardboard
2. Scissors
3. Knife
4. Paper rolls (how to make learn here)
5. Glue
6. Plastic food container
7. Food container’s lid
8. Acrylic color
9. Brushes
10. Twine/rope
Step 2. Make a small hole at base of plastic container.
Step 3. Insert both the end of twine in this hole to make a loop and make a knot inside the container. It will look like as shown in image below. It will be used for hanging the birdhouse.
Step 4. Put the lid on, press it properly.
Now glue the lid using hot glue gun.
Step 5. Now it’s time to prime it. Use acrylic color.
Step 7. It’s time to make a roof. Cut the cardboard as shown below.
Put one end on the other and glue it.
Step 8. Here you will need all the paper rolls. Start sticking rolls one by one on this cone shaped roof or you can skip this step and directly paint this cone in your choice of color.
This is how my birdhouse looks. My Son enjoyed this DIY thoroughly and I am also very happy to see how it turned out :)))
I tried placing and hanging it around different places in my garden until I found suitable one.
Near bird feeder………
Under the palm………
On the pillar…………
