You know what I love? Hummingbirds. Really though, who doesn't? Satan maybe. Ooh, and the bugs they eat. Still, I think we (those of us with opposable thumbs and the ability to read) can agree that hummingbirds make us smile. While I was standing on my deck this morning I realized I had nary a feeder and while I was at Wal-Mart I realized that I did not enjoy the plastic sort.
So for our (mostly mine) own benefit I rounded up a few very pretty DIY options. And because most o them require hummingbird feeder tubes I sourced both packs of twelve and single tubes.
A glass bottle, copper tubing and a feeder tube come together to make this gorgeous number from Birds and Blooms.
Pretty glass beads on recycled clear glass bottles come together or this feeder from Think Crafts.
And because this is Fabulous Five, not Fabulous Four, I give you one more truly fabulous hummingbird feeder.
Have fun and stay cool while you're in your gardens!
