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
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.

This is adorable! Definitely going to attempt to make one next summer. I kind of giggled to myself at the picture with your kitty… all I could think was it’s a trap…😆 The cat will love it for sure!!
