I had this heavy duty stand left over from a bird bath. I knew it still had use but for what I didn't know. I stored it away until I figured out what. I had purchased an awesome tray from RedRacks several months ago not knowing what I would use it for. Then it struck me while planting flowers. Put the two together.
My heavy duty stand.
I wiped the stand and tray down with mild soap and water. And dried both with a lint free rag.
Spray paint and adhesive.
My awesome metal tray with the cool handles.
I glued plastic water bottle lids to each top of the leg of the stand. There wasn't enough area of the leg to glue to the bottom of the tray.

I then spray painted the stand to match the tray.

I then glued the tray to the stand. I made sure that the glued down lids were dry. I then glued a ceramic bird to the edge of the tray. At last I added the bird seed. It is now ready to put it out in my garden.

I love the finished bird feeder! It was easy to make and it looks great! All you need now is some bird feed.

Thank you Randi! The only problem is that we have 3 outside cats that like to visit and have dinner. I'm glad my husband said something before I put it outside. I wouldn't want them to have bird for dinner.
