"Garden Sculpture"


Cute? Not so cute? That is my question.

Yes, I made this " garden sculpture" and you can make one too...in your own style of coarse.

One day while I was looking around at St. Vinnie's another shopper was stacking these platters with vases in between.

I asked her, "what are you trying to make?" She told me that she makes "garden sculptures" this would be her 7th.

Copy-cat me, I started looking around at platters and vases and this is what I designed with what they had on their shelves.

The plate is smaller at the top and add a little whimsy on the top plate.

All of the dishes cost me $7.50. A great deal and I was recycling!

I washed everything and used an adhesive for glass for outside.

You can buy this at a hardware store like Home Depot, ask someone in the paint dept. just to get the correct stuff.

I put it into my garden and I always give it water for butterflies and other thirsty creatures.

My bottom platter is labeled, not food safe but the other 2 are safe.

Have a creative weekend, with bee-hugs, Debby ;-o
