    Sunflower & Coneflower Wreath: Fall Decor & Dinner for the Birds

    September 18, 2014 by Patti Estep 10 Comments

    A very good friend of mine mentioned that her sister bought a fall wreath, decorated with sunflowers and statice, for decoration as well as to feed the birds.

    Sunflower & Coneflower Wreath

    Sunflower wreath for the birds

    I loved this idea and decided to try my hand at it by making a wreath to hang on one of our shepherd's hooks on the hillside.

    In addition to sunflowers I used coneflower and rudbeckia which the birds enjoy.

    A grapevine wreath, a hot glue gun and some flower seed heads are all you need to make this pretty and useful fall wreath.

    The birds will love you for it.

     

    Make a sunflower & coneflower wreath and other seed heads from your flowers. You can enjoy the beauty of the wreath and the birds can enjoy them too.

      Your wreath is beautiful, and I love that it doubles as a bird feeder. 🙂
