Great idea, I've also been using the large platters from Dollar Tree as shades. In the winter it keeps most snow off of the feeders. I spray them with paint for UV protection

Would this help keep finches away from hummingbird feeders? They eat more than the hummers!

This could've used for other feeders too to keep the bird food dryer. Thanks.

OMG! I just made it! Turned out perfect! 76 yr old grandma who has only worked with kitchen tools! Lol. I wrote the names of the nuts and bolts I needed, went to the hardware store, found them, came home and made it . I feel as proud as Lily. I wish I had had a grandpa to teach me things like that. Lucky girl.

Love it! I was just contemplating how to make something for the poor hummers in our hot, humid Oklahoma weather. I was stumped cuz I need an ant moat. I already made moats. Looks like this cover will allow me to omit the moat. I can’t leave the feeder out now cuz the syrup gets way too hot but the cover will still be nice to have. I’m going to make some. Thanks so much. I need Lily’s help, tho! So cute

Great helper you got there and a cutie as well. Been looking for a way to shade my feeders..thanks

I wonder if you could use a ‘wide’ cork from the hardware store (or even a wine bottle) plus 2 cup hooks - one screwed into the top of the cork, and the other screwed through the Frisbee and the bottom of the cork. The hooks become your hangers. Maybe less expensive than the coupler, washer, etc.

GREAT idea. Looks professional, unlike a lot of other ideas out there. Thanks.

Love it!

Tom and Lily, great job! Thank you for the great video!

What a clever idea! Instead of one huge shade pan for the whole hanging pole stand, I can add individual ones for each feeder. Very smart. The red and yellow colors are the only ones the hummers can see with their eyes, and it signals flower food for them, so red is good. Very good demo to show how you get the assembly done with eye bolts on either side. Now I know what a coupler is! It's a threaded nut that you can screw into from both sides to hold a couple of bolts. Tip - Hold the camera over the table so we get one good shot of all the parts close up. This would have been nice. Lily - that is one great grandpa you have. Soak up all his DIY knowledge, every drop you can. Learn the names of hardware, tools, processes. You have no idea how lucky you are to have a handy person teaching you all this useful stuff. All your life, you are going to need this knowledge and will regret not having picked his brain enough. In your dorm room at college fixing things, in your apartment during your first job, later in your house, and later teaching your own kids. This knowledge is gold. Because not only do you learn so much like a sponge, but you develop an attitude of self reliance and become Ms Fixit. I cannot commend you enough for sticking thru and doing this project. Do hundreds of projects and learn every single tool name and how to use it, in your dad and grandpa's garage. Quiz yourself. You will develop the mind of an inventor. At this age you might have other interests but... you need to learn how to build things, repair them, design a project, measure correctly, and know your power tools like the lines on your hand. Never ask a man to build things for you, you make it, you fix it, you keep learning. Also learn at least two foreign languages, and become a good writer by reading library books. These skills will get you very far in life and enrich your life immeasurably. Great job! That shade looks superb. Lily that is a cute pink dress, love the print. Try some white plastic starfish earrings and a seashell necklace with it. By the way, you can make your own wire wrap jewelry, did you know? It's easy to carry that kit along when you travel or just get bored. Make it and sell it. Use 'dead soft' copper wire or colored aluminum wire from Etsy or Amazon. Check out Lily-Tree, Oxana, Matt's Crazy Art, and Zurich Designs for easy wire wrap techniques on UA-cam. Have fun!!

Looking forward to making these, thank you!

Going to do this while I wait for my hummingbirds to return!! Great video!!❤

This is so precious! Great idea and instruction, love the Grandpa - Granddaughter bond ❤

I did this for 3 of my hummingbird feeders and it’s great. I use it so the sugar nectar won’t get spoiled fast in hot heat and the hummingbirds have fresh nectar for a few days for them to drink up before I make the next fresh batch of nectar. I used also went with red extra large frisbees and it works out perfectly. Thanks for you DIY video on how to make this project 😉😊

Thank you love this idea, wish you were closer and list what is needed in description.

Hello lily

Great video. Easy project and each step was explained well. I'm going to do this but will add a small plastic cup on top to act as an ant moat. Also, thanks for encouraging girls to work with tools!

Awesome tip!! Great helper you have there too!!

Lily did a great job on this video thank you! Greetings from Buenos Aires AR

👍🏽😎 different. I like it

Great little helper

Wonderful! Thanks for the video! Your helper did a great job!

I've been looking for a way to shade the hummingbird feeders. This is simply genius! Love your video and your helper. Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely going to try this. 😍

Thanks for the review! I haven't seen any like that one for sale in our local shops. Will look forward to the follow up review.

Love Lily!

Cool! Wish it was closeup of what u were doing. Couldnt figure out how two hooks were put in same hole on each side.

This is awesome! I've been searching for something like this and the store-bought things are all so expensive. This is perfect! Lily, you are adorable and a great helper!

I love this idea, it doesn't take any extra space!

I can't wait to see what you do with this!

Congratulations on your 1st video, I loved it!!
