My Friend Krys made me this tea cup bird feeder. She glued the teacup to the saucer with Loctite waterproof outdoor glue. She glued a small wood piece with a hole for a dowel. It comes of of the dowel for draining the water out. We talked about drilling drainage holes with a dremel drillbit but not sure if the teacup would break. I think the crowning touch is the tea spoon. Since this is pretty close to the ground , and we wouldn't see under it, we are thinking even a short section of white PVC pipe would make a more secure dowel top.

what a neat idea. i love tea and birds, so this could fit very well at our house.
We did end up gluing PVC pipe section and they work great. These don't have drainage holes so you may need to empty out water after a strong rain, so, don't glue it to the top of your dowel--
