1. Classic Pinecone Bird Feeder

A timeless favorite, the pinecone feeder is easy, fun, and a great way to use natural materials.

What You’ll Need:

  • Large pinecone
  • Peanut butter or nut-free spread
  • Birdseed
  • String

Steps:

  1. Tie a string securely around the pinecone top.
  2. Spread peanut butter into the gaps of the scales.
  3. Roll the pinecone in birdseed until coated.
  4. Hang outside in a tree.

Why It Works: The sticky peanut butter holds seeds in place while the pinecone’s texture makes a perfect natural structure.

Eco Tip: Use nut-free alternatives if you have allergy concerns.
