Materials: one two-foot piece of string, one pinecone, honey, seeds, two bowls, one coat hanger Instructions: Step 1: Get the materials together. Step 2: Tie the string to the top and bottom of the pinecone.(Pausing) Hmm, I wonder why the instructions say to tie the string at each end? I'm going to keep reading and see. Step 3: Pour honey in one bowl and seeds into the other bowlStep 4: Hold the string at each end, dip the pinecone in the honey, and then dip it in the seeds.(Pausing) Oh! Now I know why the instructions say to tie the string to each end! If I didn't, I think I would get honey all over my hands, and they would become sticky. Step 5: Tie each pinecone birdfeeder to a coat hanger until you are ready to hang them outside to attract bird friends.
