Chicken Feeders?








I bought two chicken feeders at an antique mall in Grapevine, TX, last November. It was one of those purchases where I knew I loved them, but didn't have a clue what to do with chicken feeders! So they moved around my house until I had an AH HA moment...above the window, like a curtain rod! So my sweet husband helped me, and here is the result.  We attached two chicken feeders side-by-side with screws and added the curtain panels.  Works best of course with ribbon-tabbed curtains.

    Love this idea. I used a wire planter & turned it upside down and hooked the curtains on it. Very cute also.
