10 Upcycled DIY Birdfeeders

Spring is coming to Northern Michigan.  The snow is melting and the birds are singing.  I LOVE to watch the birds eat and I have bird feeders strategically placed so that I can watch them as they eat.  I am looking for some more Upcycled DIY Birdfeeders so I went on a search for some unique ones.

I also want to mention that with spring comes garage sales. Garage sales and thrift stores are a great place to look for some of the items used to make these birdfeeders so keep your eyes open as you are out and about.

Here are my finds:

Do you have any old outdoor light fixtures?  They make a great birdfeeder.  Finding Secret Treasure shares how to make one.

This colorful DIY bird feeder is made from a bowl and saucer. You can buy new or find one at a garage sale or Goodwill, etc.

I love this mason jar bird feeder made by the Garden Roof Coop.  This would look pretty with a colored mason jar.

These old pots and pans make some really cute bird feeders by Cottage Market.  Don’t like the old look give them a coat of spray paint.

Look at these fun Wine Bottle Bird Feeders by the Garden Roof Coop.  You wouldn’t have to use a wine bottle but could use any glass bottle.

This DIY Candy Jar Bird Feeder is made from a glass candy jar and a vase.

Check out these recycled glass bird feeders that Holly- Life by  Design found at a flea market.  There isn’t a step by step tutorial but I might try my hand at one of these.

Here is the one I made from the above inspiration.  Mason Jar Bird Feeder

 Look at this birdfeeder made from a glass light shade by The Art of Doing Stuff.  I can see some cool bird feeders coming my way.

What can you do with an ugly lamp and a chip dip tray?  Why make a bird feeder!  Check out this Lamp Birdfeeder by Second Chance to Dream.

I’ve seen lots of teacup bird feeders on stakes but I haven’t seen hanging ones and I love this hanging teacup bird feeder by Bushel & A Peck

Did you pick out a favorite one?   I hope your creativity was stirred.
