Bird feeder, esprit cabane, alternative garden ideas

All the ingredients you need are some spare wood, a hook, some wire and a glass bottle with a screw cap. Cut a two pieces of wood from a plank about 15 cm (6 in) width: 11 x 15 cm (4 x 6 in) one and 31 x 15 cm (1 ft x 6 in) other. Join them with screws or wood dowels to make a right angle. Using the glass bottle, mark the board to show where you will attach your two wire loops - one near the neck of the bottle, and one near the bottom of the bottle. The opening of the bottle should be about 3 to 4 cm above the base. The space you left between the opening of the bottle and base will let the birdseed flow out gradually. Screw the hook into the board to hang your bird feeder. Hang the feeder in a peaceful place, if possible sheltered from rain, and out of a cat's reach, of course!

Birds of a Feather…

Is there something that can be sculpted like clay, yet doesn’t become heavy and easily breakable? Papier Mache, a craft popular around the world, not only completes these requirements, but is also given colour and life-like qualities by the craftsmen of Ujjain and Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh. Craftsman Ramkumar Thakur has a fascinating story about how the craft of papier mâché developed and came to him. The king of Gwalior liked to decorate his palace, known as Moti Mahal, with rare pearls and precious stones. Once, a guest laid eyes on a precious string of pearls. Today, craftsmen in Ujjain and Gwalior, make numerous sculptural figures with this extremely moldable material. Scrap paper, collected from local printing presses, constitutes the main ingredient in this curious concoction that converts waste to Art.
