It's pizza....for the birds! With the holidays and winter time, I always like to help out the wildlife! A great way to use stale bread, and they look cute hanging from outdoor trees! Put them by your window to see all the different types of birds stop by. This is also super easy and a good craft to make with kids!
Just a slice!
Step 1: Gather materials. Needed are birdseed, peanut butter, scissors, stale bread (use thicker bread like halved sandwich rolls or something, so that they hold up. Don't try with plain sandwich bread), and paperclips.
Step 2: Use the scissors to cut out triangles like pizza slices. Spread with a good layer of peanut butter.
Step 3: Take the birdseed, and if you want it faux-pepperoni, place a bunch of seeds in small clumps and press down. You can just coat the whole thing with seed if you'd like.
Step 4: Un-bend your clip, so that the outside piece of wire is bent at 90 degrees, and the top still retains a hook for hanging. Stick this through the slice.
That's it! Go hang on a tree outside, and wait for the birds.

ReplyDeleteFantastic idea...our feathered friends do need our help from time to time during the winter. I always have birdseed; we have four pet birds. :)
