Total Time: 1 hour

Yield: 1

Supplies:

  • an old lamp with extended arm
  • 1 teapot
  • 1 larger plate
  • 1 tea cup
  • 1 smaller plate
  • drill bit for drilling glass
  • drill
  • long bolts and nuts

Steps:

  1. Remove wiring parts from an old lamp. Drill holes into the two plates, the teapot, and the teacup using a drill and drill bit for drilling glass.
  2. Tea Cup Bird Feeder/Bird Bath - lamp pole
     
    Tea Cup Bird Feeder/Bird Bath - cup and saucer with holes drilled

  3. Attach the teacup to the top of the lamp, using a nut and bolt. Attach the teapot at an angle to the top of the extended arm of the lamp, using a nut and bolt.
  4. Tea Cup Bird Feeder/Bird Bath - bolting cup to saucer

    Tea Cup Bird Feeder/Bird Bath - teapot square plate piece from the underside attached to swing out part of the lamp
     
  5. Add a piece of chain or beads to the spout of the teapot as if "pouring" water into the teacup. Let the birds enjoy a drink or bath from the teacup or sprinkle some bird seed onto the plate to feed them. I think this will fit right in with my glass flower garden!

This is adorable, but have you actually SEEN any birds use it for bathing? I hope so. It's a cute idea!
