SNS 149 - bird baths


Bird Baths - a themed link party via Funky Junk Interiors

Saturday Nite Special link party via Funky Junk Interiors


Welcome to Saturday Nite Special, the multi themed DIY link party! 

* Home Decor / Gardening
 * Crafts, / Sewing / Recipes / Printables / Blog tips
* Theme of the week

Every Fri 7pm  to Sunday 11 pm Pacific.

 Just like much of anything else I prefer, I'm not very much of a traditionalist when it comes to birdbaths. I just like junky things mixed up.

Stepladder terra cotta pot birdbath by Eclectically Vintage via Funky Junk Interiors

 Eclectically Vintage

A terra cotta pot filled with water on a cute vintage step ladder becomes the perfect little birdbath anyone can make in a jiffy!
A garbage can birdbath via Funky Junk Interiors

Funky Junk's garbage can bird bath

 You read that right. Flip a (sealed) garbage can lid upside down, fill with water and you're done.
Cow feeder birdbath via Funky Junk Interiors

 Funky Junk's feeder birdbath

This little flower filled wheelbarrow turned 'bird spa' resides in the backyard. I think the birdbath is a cow feeder, but maybe don't quote me on that.

Birdbaths don't get much easier than that!

 Do you have a creative birdbath?
Link it up in this weekend's 3rd themed linkup!

    Thanks for hosting Donna! My bird "spa" is not fancy but it sure has been a wildlife magnet and a precious resource during this summer of drought and brutal heat! We've enjoyed watching and photographing the wildlife around here :)

    Donna - thanks for hosting! I was so pleased with myself for getting this post done in time, and when I came back to link up I took a closer look at some of your bird baths. Lo and behold, you are also using a livestock waterer for one! Great minds think alike, right?? :)
