TEACUP BIRDFEEDER

TEACUP BIRDFEEDER!!

I saw this idea awhile ago and thought it was cute!
So I scoured the local Goodwill and thrift stores and found a cup and saucer for $1, perfect! We had some extra wood posts from a railing, so I took one and painted it....
Then the hard part, glueing the cup and saucer to the top of the post! I tried many types of glue, including industrial strength E6000 but nothing worked. 
Here's the finished product:

  The glues I tried worked for awhile but when the post was out in the weather the glue quit sticking, so
this is what I found finally worked....
Gorilla Glue!! I can't say enough about this great product!! It bonded the porcelain cup and saucer together as well as the saucer to the top of the post. After weeks in the weather it is still holding!!
Thanks Gorilla Glue!
