These butterfly feeders are super simple to make!

You will need:

  • a jar

  • scissors

  • sponges (I used two for this sized jar)

  • string

  • water

  • sugar

Before you start, ensure your jar is completely clean with no residual soap.

  1. Tie the string around the top of the jar to create a handle- I like using this famous brand as there is a small lip near the top to keep the string in place

  2. Put both sponges into the jar so they are level with the top of the jar

  3. Fill the jar with sugary water (this is the food) - 1 part sugar dissolved in 4 parts water

There you have it. Yes, it’s that simple! Hang your butterfly feeder in your garden and watch for the butterflies to come and have a drink!
