Making a Christmas
Wreath for the birds
Buy some
tiny terracotta garden pots
(available at craft stores), attach a
wire, fill with suet and roll the top in
wild bird seed. Then attach to your
wreath. A particular favourite of
Bluejays!
Have you ever tried frozen grapes or ice wine?
Well turns out grapes are great when they are frozen and so make a great addition to your
wreath
