After a while, social distancing gets old, so old that you don't know what to watch on Netflix, you tried Hulu, watched every video on your Youtube feed and now...you are ready to go out! Out where though? We have to stay at home...
How about your patio, that one that you have neglected for a year, or maybe the yard that you dread mowing the lawn or the abandoned "storage looking" balcony in your city apartment?
Here I will share an idea of a DIY project that will beautify your space, add interest, color, and a bit of nature... and as a plus, we will have guests over, they are birds, but at this point who cares right?
If you have a small patio, balcony or yard, creating this Bird Waterer is not only easy but will attract some flying friends who are a joy to watch.

MATERIALS
1 BIG PVC PLANTER
1 SMALL PVC PLANTER
1 PLANTER PLATE (where drains the excess water)
GLUE
🌱 STEP 1 Put the smaller planter with the bottoms up ( this will serve as a pedestal for the bird waterer)
🌱 STEP 2 Add glue to the planter plate (this will be the waterer)
🌱 STEP 3 Add soil to the space between the inverted planter and add some flowers.
Today we have something we haven't had for a while...time! Let's use it to make things better in our little world, our home.
Let's clean that patio, organize and get rid cobwebs from the apartment balcony, use those old looking plastic chairs you have been storing, sweep, clean and enjoy your space today!
Maybe we will make enough time to sit outside, notice the birds singing, feel the breeze in your hair, read that book while you comb with your fingers your kids' hair, pet your dog or simply enjoy the act of breathing...
Being stuck inside sucks, but I can tell you from experience that people in the hospital wish they could be "stuck at home", there is nothing more comforting to them right now.
You know what really sucks? Being alone, in a hospital, no friends can go visit, no family can stay with you. I had an experience like that 3 years ago and being sick was not the hardest part, but feeling lonely.
I'm not scalding us though... I'm trying to help us grasp the idea that despite the "stuck at home I need to get out feeling", it could be worse, you are ok, you are blessed to be at home loving on those little ones that dive you crazy.
And here I am sharing with you ideas on what to do at home to make our time productive and to keep us busy and away from today's crazy times!
I bless you all people and I hope you try this and make a happy place to be at home.
