Go rustic with wood: For homeowners who prefer simplicity and classic touches, try building your own feeder with wood. Build a tiny wooden house which can host any avian guests that visit your garden, and then surround the structured birdhouse with a wooden fence and beautiful wildflowers.

Try hanging glass and wire feeders from wood: For a structured look, create the ultimate bird feeder with a combination of sturdy and practical materials. Use wood to craft your house, and then dangle wire and glass accents from the side. These whimsical suspended feeders can then be filled with birdseeds to tempt the birds in the area, and offer them a welcoming and stylish space!
