Upcycled Birdhouses or Bee/insect Hotel. I took some @davidriosf tins and #upcycled them into #birdhouses. Great activity to do for #Beltane tomorrow :) Items used: - tea/coffee/hot chocolate/chai/ etc tin - rope/ribbon/lace/etc - moss/lichen (the #moss and #lichen used in the making of these birdhouses was hand collected and process by me; and I only collect what it loose on the forest floor) - hot glue - hollowed out reeds/bamboo or rolled up paper/ toilet paper rolls is optional if you’d rather make bee hotels!!!!! - dark paint (optional) Steps: 1. Make sure the tin is cleaned out; 2a. Paint the tins (optional) 2b. Measure and fasten the rope, that you plan to use to hang the birdhouse (or whatever you e chosen to use), to the tin and tie a knot in the top; 3. Start to glue the lichen/moss to the tin with the hot glue; 4a. If you decide to make a bee hotel, this is where you would insert the hollowed out reeds/bamboo/rolled up paper/ toilet paper rolls into the opening of the tin; 4b. Find somewhere suitable to hang the birdhouses and hope that they get tenants. 🐦🐝🐞🕷 #insecthotel #beehotel #reuse #homemadebirdhouse #witch #naturewitch #greenwitch #eclecticwitch #witchesofinstagram #witchlife #witchythings #spooniewitch #raisingwitches #raisingwitchlings #witches #witchythings #witchyways #witchcraft #pagan #magic #magick #goodwitch #witchjewelry #witchtools #witchywares https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw5HHaFgErN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18vosrqewpoc9
