I found this poem

A bowl to splash in
and a cup to feed,
Just fill with water
and delectable seed.

Your feathered friends
are sure to come,
and put on a show
for lots of good fun.

So grab a drink
and sit back and relax,
enjoy your friends as
summer flies by too fast.

Thanks 'nonacook' and 'jeannespines' for your comments and encouragement! :) I liked the 'turned over' cup idea as it gave a more casual look to it....as if someone had been careless and knocked over the cup. :) I'm making another 'tea-cup' feeder where the teacups are upright. I have a metal candle-holder that I am going to glue 3 tea-cups to that can be suspended from a tree. pixie_lou, The smaller teacup bird feeders would hand from an "S" hook in a tree. I haven't actually put one up yet so they may need a loop of rope to keep them from swinging off the "S" hook and falling, but when I hang them from my finger they are level and balanced. I'll test one out today!

Thanks for the nice compliments, everyone! We love blue too! Garianntx, So easy to do. I used GEII to glue it all together. Attached a copper cap fitting to the bottom. Once dry, the fitting fits onto a copper pipe. Below is the link to the Gardenweb Junk FAQ that tells how to do the teacup and saucer feeder. I did my bowl and saucer the same way. Have fun! The sun is shining today! Bear Hugs! Kirk Here is a link that might be useful: Teacup feeder

Drilling holes in teacups
Q
Comments (9)
I use a ceramic bit...it's not made of ceramic, it's made to drill through ceramic. It looks like a little arrowhead on the end. I am fortunate to have a drill press, so I can just put the project on the bed of the drill press and concentrate on the amount of pressure I put on the cup while drilling. Slow and steady is the secret, I've found. I have a cup of water beside me while I'm working and stop frequently and dip my hand into the water and dribble water into the hole then drill a little more and then dribble a little more. The bit gets really hot without the water. I do break some things, but I'm kind of getting the knack now with practice. Good luck!

My first teacup birdfeeder

Luna took the words right out of my mouth!! A very pretty gift & the seed wrapped so nicely!! If you are in any spring craft fairs I would think they would sell well that is so attractive. But ata Fair you would need to come up with a cheaper stand. Copper will be very nice for your mom but in lot of places it gets stolen. Won't you need something to screw into??? or is that something hanging down that can slip into a pipe. Just galvanized pipe painted would be cheaper I think. It would last for many years!! Jan

Is this the one you were looking for?

Your feathered friends could use a rest
A dainty teacup would be the best
A cup of water; a plate of seed
A tiny perch is all they need.
A pretty spot with lots of flowers
You'll be entertained for hours!

Hope this helps...Mary
