Happy Birthday Grandma Richards!

It was my mom's birthday this week so for our FHE we made some bird feeders. I found the recipe on Pinterest! (man i love that website!) Each kid picked a cookie cutter out then we wrapped them in tin foil and sprayed them with cooking spray.

(Ethan chose a tulip)

(Emma a star)

(Ella a duck)


Next step, mix up some plain ol' gelatin with some water, btw, it stinks, can you tell by Ella's face in the below picture?


Measure out 2 cups of seeds and add the gelatin.


Stir, stir, stir! Then fill your cookie cutter up to the top.




Once filled put a cut straw where you want your string to go once it is dry.

Tie a piece of rope or hemp or whatever you have and it's done. We gave these to Grandma to take up to her new Cabin. It was fun and cheap!!
