Barrel Posts for String Lights DIY

[@Gracie0229]

Great idea and it looks wonderful. I found your video looking for the same kind of idea to hang birdseed feeders on do you think it would hold the birdseed feeders? Also, is there enough weight? Thank you.

Yes, I hung a hummingbird feeder. This base besides the roughly 100 lb barrel has an extra maybe 100 lb of rock weight, so it will stand well on its own. Just consider that the longer the string of lights/line, the more weight and chance that something could fall onto it to topple two barrels inward. I ended up tying an extra guy wire cord down to the deck to prevent them from falling inward. Hope that helps!

Thank you! Cheers! I'll have to do an update video on how I improved them!
