Terrific! I like DIY videos, because I'm that type of person! I'm going for it!!! Thanks!!!

Very cute--and especially thanks for the info on how to fill the bottle so it doesn't leak.

Nice easy project Lindsay. I especially like the "flowers" at the end of the straw. Makes it look real. Nice job.

This DIY looks like a fun project to do with my grandson! Thank you!

I think the feeder is gorgeous. I find that if I put my sugar into a big measuring cup and only add a small amount of boiling water from my tea kettle, then stir until all of the sugar is thoroughly melted. Next I finish by putting in the rest of the water I need from a bottle of drinking water from the fridge. The nectar is immediately ready to use. No waiting.

I had not had Poland water since the 90's great taste.

I really love your idea! I want to make one! Thank you very much for sharing.

What a awesome idea. Love it.

Very nice video! Now a question: You said that if the feeder is to full no nectar will come out but that if it is not full enough the nectar will all leak out, so what happens when the birds drink it down halfway? Will it all run out?

love your lawn.

Going to do this thanks.

Omg! Fantabulous! ❤️❤️❤️ I think this is the BEST (and prettiest) DIY hummingbird feeder I think I've ever seen! 👍 I work with wire and was looking for something like this. I need to get some huge beads and I'm thinking I may be able to recycle some of my old cannula tubing (aka oxygen tubing) and create a splitter or either drill 2 holes for multiple feeding ports. Thanks for sharing this fabulous idea! 😊

Home & Garden for Mere Mortals I would liked to have seen a humming bird using your feeder. Great video. Thank you.

wonderful job Lindsay. Very pretty feeder. I make my own hummingbird food to avoid the red dye. Make mine like you do.

I love this idea! Thanks for sharing. I have LOTS of wine bottles (is that a bad thing? LOL) and can't wait to make these swanky hummingbird feeders!

Wow, love this! Thanks

LOVE IT! So clever!

😎❤️making one tomorrow, but I will have to empty the bottle of wine first!

I loved your video and thank you for sharing this great idea! My parents (mostly dad) sits with his flying friends daily and it's so sad because dad has lost most of his human friends in his neighborhood cuz like dad says, "They didn't beat the odds of waking up that morning". I tell dad...nah, I'm willing to bet they just got tired of hearing their wives nag all day and figured since they always came over here for a few beers n good convo, why not make it a permanent situation? My dad always listens with non judgemental ears and gives you 5 stars just for bravery to place any power tool in your hand and learning how to use it! So, I think I'm going to take this very lesson out of all I watched, and show dad I too tried, so he may have to tidy up any mess I create, but I know for a fact this Father's Day, he and his buddies won't mind 1 bit!

Loved it.

LOOOVE this video! thank you for posting this (even though its old and i just NOW found it!) i needed to find something to put at the bottom of my glass bottles! I ended up just taking the plastic bottom of the cheap feeders and using some E-6000 to keep it on there! it totally worked though and they still get the nector! very pretty bottle! ; )

Absolutely a wonderful video !! Easy to follow! Love it !

Perhaps you could show the hummingbirds feeding from it.

Brilliant!

Great video... I would have liked to see hummingbirds feeding from it in the end 🤗

We are having a problem with the feeders leaking. Any suggestions?

Very amazing

I will be making these for Christmas gifts. Thank you for the information, where did you get your bead assortment?

so, will it be ok, when it gets lower in the bottle? or is just the initial prime of the feeder that you need to worry about. love the idea. I broke my plastic one and it was cheezy looking this is way nicer

Very nice!! And $$ friendly!!👍🏼👍🏼❤🙂

🥰 cute

"Manly man pliers" hahaha hilarious :D

Very informative!

If it won't hold a vacuum when the liquid gets low, then the birds are going to be playing a particularly suspenseful game of jack-in-the-box! It's like a reverse dunk tank!

hi friends super ideas

I can’t get the wire to stay on the top of the bottle with the loop. It keeps sliding off I tried twisting it tighter with no luck ! Help !

If it gets low does it start to leak, wheres the sweet spot ??

wow so cute

Gracias!!!🤩😍👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍😲😲😮😮

Great Video :)

I love this! New sub ⚘

does it really works? I mean... the birds really drink it?

Is the hot glue safe for the birds? Thanks! 🐦

Instead of a plastic straws, what else can I use, so I clean it good?

Drilling in the wrong direction... too funny. Also it's most likely gonna get sucked vacuum after a while. (as in nothing will come out) Other than that I like the look of it :)

We tried this and the liquid just keeps coming out. What did we do wrong?

Cute, but only one bird can feed at a time. Also, that plastic straw won't last long and regular cleaning would damage it pretty quick. Harmful bacteria builds up which causes intestinal distress for hummingbirds so their feeders should be cleaned, especially if sitting in the sun, every four days. Maybe a small rubber hose would be better.

If you leave alcohol in the humming bird feeder and bees come to it, will they produce mead instead of honey?

Pretty but only one bird at a time can eat. Can you make something where more hummingbirds can eat?

Sugar is ok for humminbirds ?

It's a beautiful idea but as you were speaking it was dripping sugarwater. You could see the bubbles. It's very dangerous for a hummingbird to get sugarwater on its feathers most of the time they perish because they can't fly and starve to death

Ahhhh....now we know why so many hummingbirds go into torpor under their hummingbird feeder... people are not washing all the alcohol out of their wine bottles ;)

The drill was going the wrong way.

Almost started to do this, but then it struck me: there are no humming birds where I live. And the tropical zoos already have feeders.

This is nice and pretty but one feeder for one bird doesn't work. I have 3 feeders that will handle 8 birds each. I sit in a chair in the early evening watching 15 ti 20 birds feeding and buzzing the area. My neighbor who is 92 enjoys watching them. Your bottle would do nothing to please them, I make a gallon of nectar a day as they are in the yard from sunrise to sunset. Good luck attracting more than a couple of birds.

Did you seriously drill in the wrong direction ?😂

I see absolutely no reason whatsoever to go through all of this.

Unless your on Well Water , please do not use the Tap ! I cringe at the thought of feeding Gods most lovely creations with the same Poisons that we consume on a daily basis ! fluoride is a Poison, if you don't believe me just read the warning label on your Toothpaste .

leaks and attracts ants, garbage
