I was needing a bird feeder because I am surrounded by a lot of trees and birds, and my cats love to bird watch! When I found this chandelier at a garage sale for $5, I thought it would make a perfect bird feeder and a backyard decoration.
Before I spray painted it, it was a tarnished silver color. There’s nothing a can of spray paint can’t fix!
After spray painting it I added bird seed and hung it on a tree branch.
Another idea you can do is hot glue plastic plates or bowls and fill with bird seed.
Spray painted, of course!

What a super cute idea! I love this!
Love the looks of these. You should consider installing a patio out there and maybe putting up a spiral staircases. I did it for my house and it looks fantastic.

BRILLIANT! Hope you linked this up to my party because it’s very pin & feature worthy!!
Very cute idea!
you are smart…that’s a great idea!
Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous! I love the colors you chose. Looks like a birdfeeder you’d pay hundreds for in an expensive boutique!
Classy and creative use of an old chandelier. I bet the birds flock to it!
Oh, what a clever idea! I know my MIL would adore this as she feeds birds every day. This is just too cute! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I might borrow your idea at some point and make one of these for her.
Dropping over from Becky’s blog party, and I’m so glad I did.
