DIY Woodstock Bird Feeder

A simple craft worth chirping about! Make a simple bird feeder to pay homage to Woodstock, the feathered friend in the PEANUTS Gang.

As a Knott’s Ambassador, I receive complimenaty admission to faciliate reviews. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Do you have a favorite PEANUTS character? Perhaps the underdog Charlie Brown or confident Lucy Van Pelt? Woodstock is a character worth squaking about!

Woodstock is the inspiration for this easy DIY bird feeder made from simple and recycled materials. With everything I needed at home, the final product didn’t cost me anything and came together in just minutes.

DIY Woodstock Bird Feeder

Supplies Needed:

  • Toilet paper roll
  • Twine
  • Peanut butter
  • Bird seed
  • Hot glue gun & glue
  • Scissors
  • Woodstock images
  • Hole punch (optional)

How to Make a DIY Woodstock Bird Feeder:

Start with an empty toilet paper roll. Poke two holes on the top of the toilet paper roll with scissors or a hole punch.

String a piece of twine through the holes and tie at the top. A second knot is needed. It will serve as way to secure Woodstock to your twine loop so he can rest above his nest.

To add a PEANUTS touch to the DIY bird feeder, I printed pictures of Woodstock I found online. I wanted Woodstock to be slightly durable, so he would survive the elements.

Easy laminating hack: if you don’t have a laminator at home, use clear packing tape.

Once covered in tape, I cut out my Woodstock for the bird feeder topper.

How to Make a Woodstock Bird Feeder

  • To make a bird nest for Woodstock, you’ll be winding twine around the top of your toilet paper roll. Start by securing end of twine with hot glue. Then messily wind twine around roll. Periodically secure twine with dots of hot glue.
  • When desired nest is created, secure end with additional hot glue.
  • Cover exposed toilet paper roll with peanut butter.
  • Spoon or roll your toilet paper roll in bird seed.
  • Attach woodstock to lower knot with hot glue.
