I think the hummingbirds are going to love it. Seriously.
So, I found this hot air balloon hummingbird feeder at my local thrift store, and I decided to upcycle it, or thrift flip it into a DIY macrame plant hanger bird feeder mashup thing.
If you're looking for some fun outdoor decor ideas for macrame projects, you should try making one of these cool plant hangers too.
I'm using outdoor macrame cord, and I'm starting my plant holder without a wooden ring so it doesn't fall apart on me.
Note: This isn't a step-by-step tutorial, but I do explain what I'm doing as I go so if you want, you can follow along and do something similar.
Here's the cord I used: https://www.ganxxet.com/collections/outdoor-cord/products/outdoor-recycled-braided-cord-6-mm-natural-color?ref=QAByHx2LB7FUBe
Cord Lengths: 6 pieces @ 6 arm-spans long (402 inches)
2 @ 35 inches long (for wrapping knots)
Oh, and a little piece to make the little loop to hold the hummingbird feeder.
(Yes that number is correct, this is a longer plant hanger so it took a lot of cord.)
And I found the hummingbird feeder at a thrift store.🌸
