First. I got the big red vase at the thrift store for 9 bucks, the silver glass bowl was about 7......in this case I didn't do anything but stick them together. I used the open end down so I could secure the vase on a metal rod so it does't blow over.
What is it? dunno, maybe a bird bath? I will have to stand something inside because its a bit deep. The next one is an over large cup and saucer. I have attached a fitting on the bottom and a brass rod will screw into it. It will be placed in the flower garden among where the Black eyed Susans come up.
The next concoction is just to sit on the glass table on the deck. The fairy I just love but one of her pigtails broke. Didn't want to throw her out but because I have so much stuff around I had decided anything broken must go. So why not put her in the garden. I painted over the break and she finished off my table topper.
This next one will go on the front porch. In the teapot I will put an ivy.
Another broken fairy. She got her butterfly mended and I attached her to a dollar store plate and candle holder.
This one is smaller and is a candle holder as the base with a fancy plate and a blue glass plate on top. It needed something else.....a blue ball that I already had. That finished it and will just sit on a table on the front porch. I hope looking pretty with a white table cloth.
This is an old ashtray. I found long ago and this year is a tad rusty so I put one of the 3 blue dishes I found in it fo this year. It will be a bird bath. I got the three blue dishes and teapot for 7 dollars and used everything.
I found two bird houses at the the thrift store. I have put attachments on the base of both of them and they will now go on copper pipes in the garden beds. I have used up all my attachments I bought and there are still a bunch of things left on the table. SO ...........what next?????
I will be sharing this with
My mother is so talented! Looking forward to seeing everything surrounded by flowers!
ReplyDeleteI love them all! I also make lots of glass pieces for the garden. With my brown thumb, it's usually the only color I get.
ReplyDeleteVery creative. It's still a bit early here to garden, but I may add a few ornaments to mine. Depends on what I find while I'm out thrifting. Thank you for posting.
