These adorable birdfeeders are the perfect winter project to foster creativity and also make the birds happy!  I saw this on Pinterest and thought it would be a fun and inexpensive way to provide food for the birdies all winter.   Do it on your own, or with kiddos!

You only need a few items:

For the cookie cutters, use simple shapes such as a star, heart, or circle.  You don't want to use very complex designs because they won't hold together well.

Here's the tutorial that I used - so easy!

After taking about 30 seconds to make the birdseed mixture, I pressed it into the shapes and added string and let it dry overnight... Come morning, I simply removed them from the cookie cutters. Ready to hang them from the trees! Come, birdies, COME!
