Top Tip

Try filling the tip of the teapot with glue to prevent seeds falling out of the spout. You will need to seal the teapot with a coat of acrylic varnish to make it water resistant.

  1. Cover the teapot and a bamboo stick with a coat of red paint and leave to dry.
  2. Once dry, use white paint to decorate the teapot with a polka dot pattern. Leave to dry, then add a coat of varnish to seal it.
  3. Glue the bamboo stick to the rim of the teapot, just above the spout, to create a perch for the birds. Leave to dry.
  4. Tie a piece of dark blue ribbon around the handle to create a loop for the teapot to hang from.
  5. Fill the inner part of the teapot with bird seed.
