It really was SO simple to make this project. I just used my favorite outdoor glue, 100% Silicone, to adhere the kettle to a piece of embellished scrap wood (pallet wood in this case), added two hooks and hung it. Yeah, that's it! If you want to see exactly how I did it. Here's the video for it:
Now all we need is a nest!

I almost did this with an old tea pot but didn't have a tree to hang it in. (townhome) Should be fun when the birds move in.
ReplyDeleteWe have a beat up old swing that has grapevines growing all over it...that's where I hung mine from. Hope you can find a spot for one, they're so much fun.
DeleteHow clever! I am forever collecting teapots minus lids to use as planters but that is a whole new take on my lidless teapots. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteAren't teapots fun? There's lots of fun stuff you can do with them in the garden.
DeleteThat is so cool! What a great idea on making a bird house.
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you!
DeleteI have never seen a birdhouse like this! What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful and I bet the birds are in-love with it! Found you on Katherine's Thursday Hop.Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Cynthia!
Deletethat's so cute and clever!! I've seen that done with shoes but love the teapot!
ReplyDeleteThe old shoe houses are adorable, too!
DeleteI have many upcycled projects for my birds outside but this one is new to me. I have several old tea pots that I could use. I can't wait to make one of these.Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Easter,
