Okay, well, the original plan was to take pine cones, lather them with peanut butter and roll them in bird seed. But you work with what you have. We took apples, gouged a couple divots in them, smeared peanut butter on them and rolled them in hamster food.
We tied ribbons around them and then attached them to our tree outside our front window. They are very pretty hanging there! Starting yesterday, SS (stepson) went to his mom's for the week, so we only made 3 apples, and you'll notice his absence from the pics for the next week.
Our daughter had a lot of fun. She's crafty and loves doing things with her hands. I don't generally, and I can't think of anyone she is related to who does, but this fills her little love tank up. You do what it takes!
So we are sharing the Christmas spirit with God's little winged creatures today (and I'm sure the squirrels will beat the birds to them. Bless their furry little hearts.)
