BEAUTIFYING A WINTER BIRD BATH

Want to see a 

BIRD BATH

makeover?

Sure you do!

I bought a heated

bird bath to keep 

water close by the

feeders for our

feathered friends.

It is FUNCTIONAL but

NOT PRETTY.

No stand?

No problem.

I wired it to an old

milk can I have had 

for years.

Pretty tacky looking, huh?

It's okay!

You can agree with me- 

IT LOOKS TACKY~
It sits on a rubbermaid
top so that it doesn't
get rust on the patio.
because MyHero hates rust
and likes to scold me about it

Hmmmm...

With a little help from my

Partner In Crime

oldest son,

we (ahem) borrowed some

greens from an abandoned

property.

Don't ask where because 

I want to go back next year

and if I tell YOU all my 

greens will be gone.

This is at the base of my

back stoop so I can get 

to it easily to fill it with

fresh water.

I wrapped this

baby with greenery,
tying it as I went.

Now it looks better AND 

I think that the birds will be

more inclined to use it.

Not bad huh? 

And the morning after

I woke up to snow.

Sweet white snow.

If I were a bird I would be

inviting all my friends over for a

POOL PARTY...

IF I didn't have to put on a

bathing suit, that is.
