Covered Bird Feeders
It feels so great to have the 2018 spring line of Covered Bird Feeders ready for you. The glass started coming in last summer, about the time the hardware was being powder coated. There are only 8 in the spring collection, making these pieces very OOAK - perfect for the person who loves to have something no one else has.
The Glass
Tops to the bird feeders are repurposed lamp or ceiling shades from early last century. Herringbone and Iris in pink and soft beige, Ribbons and Bows in blue and beige and stunning florals are all part of the 8 piece collection - which can be found at this link: http://etsy.me/2tS7lbh

The bottoms include carnival glass in blue, green and violet, a depression era console bowl, beautiful embossed white ruffle and a stunning opalescent green with drape design.
Hardware & Powder Coating
The hardware is adjustable and powder coated for a stunning finish.High Point, our powder coating contractor for many years has this to say about the process: "Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The absence of solvents and VOCs is what makes powder coating a more environmentally friendly option to traditional wet paints."
I just love the environmental aspects of this finish, not to mention it's resiliency with nature. Three finishes are available - Textured White, Wrinkle Black and Cafe Noir. You choose!

Squirrel Proof?
Nothing is really squirrel proof, but with adjustable hardware you can close the gap between top and bottom to a few inches to attract the birds you most enjoy!
And the tops do help keep your bird food dry.
