Plate and Bowl Birdfeeder
You can make a beautiful birdfeeder from a saucer and a matching bowl – or a mismatched one if you prefer. You just have to drill a hole in the saucer and attach the two together. Ok, so it is a bit more complicated than that but not too complicated. This beautiful birdfeeder looks great and the saucer protects your birds from rain, sun and other weather elements, sort of like an umbrella. Via – Erinscreative
Tea Cup Birdfeeder
A teacup and saucer can make a beautiful birdfeeder. If you have a spare set, you can create a very unique feeder by gluing the teacup to the saucer sideways. It makes it look as if the bird food has spilled out of the cup. This is an adorable feeder and with a ribbon or string, you can hang it anywhere that you want to see pretty little birds. Note that you do need glue that has really good holding power.

Wine Bottle Birdfeeders
Old wine bottles can be turned into beautiful birdfeeders. You just have to create a base and a small saucer works perfectly. Then just carefully drill holes in the sides of the bottles to allow the bird food to come through and hang. You can fill the bottles through the lid. You just have to add wire or rope to hang.

Mason Jar Feeders
Mason jars can be used for so many DIY projects and they make excellent birdfeeders. You can buy metal chick feeders at any farm supply store and they are really inexpensive. You then just have to affix them to your mason jar and choose a way to hang it. These are really cute feeders and you can do different styles so that you have a little variety.

Birdfeeders from Recycled Products
Honestly, whatever you have lying around the house could be turned into a birdfeeder. As long as you have a way to hang it or attach it to your outside wall, and it will hold bird food, you can create a birdfeeder. Even old license plates could be used to create a whimsical and really unique feeder that you will be proud to display and your birds will love the thought.

Shoe Feeder
You can even make a birdfeeder from an old shoe. If you are into whimsical and really unique things, why not nail a shoe to your tree and put your bird feed in there? Not only will the birds love you for feeding them, your neighbors are sure to think that you are the most creative person ever.

Wooden Spoon Feeder
A plastic soda bottle and a couple of wooden spoons make a great birdfeeder. You just have to make holes in the bottle for the spoons and be sure that you angle the spoons downward so that the birdfeed will drizzle onto them. This is a really cute idea and a great project for the kids.

Milk Carton Feeder
An old milk carton will make an adorable feeder. You can paint (or have the kids paint) a cardboard milk carton and then just cut a hold for the feed. You may want to put a wooden dowel or even a wooden spoon through so that the birds have somewhere to land when they want to eat. These are really easy to make and are great for kids to do.

Teapot Feeder
An old teapot will make a really cute birdfeeder. Just attach the teapot to a tree or even the side of your house. You can use this for a feeder or a nester. Birds can get inside and build their nests so that you can see the babies when they are hatched. As a feeder, it works really well and is a really unique idea.

Log Bird Feeder
Create a small log by carving out part of a small piece of wood. If you use firewood in the winter, just one little log will do it. You just have to hollow out enough room for the food and then attach a chain to hang the log in your tree. Birds will love it because they will feel as if the tree itself is feeding them.

Teacup Towers
Teacups make such adorable birdfeeders. You can create a little section in your garden for feeders and put them on poles to make them more decorate. Just attach teacups to saucers and then to the poles. These are great for sitting out in the yard and the more you put up, the more birds you will have to look at.

Pinecone Feeders
Pinecone feeders are sort of traditional. You can spread them with peanut butter and then add birdseed or spread them with lard and add birdseed. Whatever you prefer, these are really easy to make and are great projects for the kids. Make several of them and decorate your outdoor trees with many little feeders.

Window Birdfeeder
If you love looking at birds in the winter but simply don't want to go outside to do it, you can bring them right up to your window. You just need a few scraps of wood and a glass-safe hanger. Just create a little "house" for your birds and then attach to any window. You can then sit inside your warm and comfy house and watch the birds eat all day long.
