Cut out the hole with the craft knife or scissors. Step 7: Use the craft stick, plastic knife or Popsicle stick to spread the peanut butter on all four sides of the milk carton. Step 8: Spread the birdseed out on the wax paper. Press the milk carton coated with peanut butter into the birdseed until it is thoroughly covered. Step 9: Center and glue the bird feeder onto the scrap of wood. Step 10: Glue decorative moss or grass around the edges of the feeder on the top of the wood base. Step 11: For different looks on the “roof” you can glue pieces of grass, petals of a pine cone etc to the sloped edges of the milk carton.
