Sparkle Crafts: Cozy Treats for Our Animal Friends
Most furred and feathered animals are well-adapted to the cold. They have layers to keep them warm and they hibernate or migrate to warmer weather. But many of them stick around and sometimes it can get pretty cold — they might even need a cozy treat or two. Here are some of our Sparkle-inspired animal treats:
Tuna Fish Kitty Cookies
Most cats in your life have probably taken up the warmest spot in the house and claimed it as their own. But when they do venture outside, you can give them some extra love with these homemade kitty treats.
Peanut Butter Yogurt Drops for Dogs
Your pup will love these two-ingredient treats. And if you have to train them to wipe their paws before coming inside from the snow and mud, these will be an enjoyable motivation for them!
Recycled Bird Feeder
This recycled bird feeder is a great way to help give your backyard wildlife a little extra help when food is scarce during the winter.
Recycled Hummingbird Feeder
It's hummingbird season here in the desert and the creatures are everywhere. Unfortunately, there are not many flowers in bloom right now, so I like to help them out with a little bit of sugar water. Here is our Sparkle-inspired DIY hummingbird feeder.
Bird Feeders and Squirrel Feeders
I'm pretty sure the squirrels will find this before the birds do, but that's okay because it's for them, too. The main ingredients are peanut butter and a seed mix to help keep our wild friends nourished.
Octopus Dog Toy
This upcycled t-shirt project makes a great dog toy for those days spent inside due to bad weather. Super-easy to make and hours of fun for your pet.
