So, today I croched my bird feeder holder.  I can't take credit for coming up with this idea. I actually saw it on another blog and decided to try it.  Here are the photos and instructions.

Begin with some twine, crochet hook, and a bowl. I used a paper bowl but I'll exchange it for a heavier, glass or plastic bowl later.

Next, crochet a circle large enough for the bottom of the bowl to sit, then double crochet for two rows.  As a finish, chain 4, skip next stitch, single crochet on next stitch, chain 4, and repeat all the way around. You want to make sure the bottom circle is small enough so that the bowl doesn't fall through.



Finally, make sure the bowl fits.

To hang: chain enough stitches and attach in four equal spaces to the holder, hang, and wait for the birds to come by and check out your new feeder:
