This ornament was patterned off the one at S.C.R.A.P.. The craft is designed to help you reuse some old scrap, specifically a pill bottle and a juice bottle cap.
I started off by painting my cap black and filling a mini bead bottle with bird seed. I glued the pieces together and glued on a small branch. I found a set of 3 mini birds at a local craft store, and glued one on to the branch. For the metal top, I used a circle cut from a previous year's Christmas cracker, and glued it into a cone and then glued it to the bottle. It's a bit fragile, so if I did this again I'd either use cardboard for the cone or glue the paper onto cardboard or cardstock so it's firmer.
