Here's my story on it.
It all started around Christmas and the dog gone dang cold snowy weather we normally see on TV ( I live near Seattle) or drive up in the mountains and play in.
There was parts on me freezing that never happened before and around that time it got to be in the mid teens. I didn't like it and the little
hummers were complaining that all they got were popsicles to lick. So I thought of a great idea, I took off my old wore out wool socks and cut
the toe off and pulled it over the glass container and wrapped stripped sheet linen under and around the plastic bottom. It worked somewhat but
it was downright ugly. So I was decorating the tree when I came across the sturdy tinsel wrapping and used red plastic normally saved for tomatoes and
viola! a christmasy masterpiece. Now I aint the decorating persuasion, I gotta admit in the first Anna pic, the hummer and the feeder are color coordinated.

(you can see the difference during that time-- the normal rainy day (we love it) and the windy city type stuff you get).
