Glass birdbath finished

17 years ago

I finished the glass birdbath that I started last weekend. I hope the birds like it as much as I do.

    That is very cool! Did the white vases come like that or did you somehow color them? I don't see many white vases let alone finding 3 in 2 different shapes! And do they have stripes on them or is that a shadow? I like the birdy you put in the bath. And it is a great idea that you built it all on a concrete stepping stone. I always thought that would be a great idea to keep a totem stable. Very pretty!

    If I was a bird -- I'd LOVE IT !!!!!!! Now they'll be spoiled ~~ LOL

    The vases came white with a blue stripe in them. I didn't do anything to them but glue them all together.

    All white with a stipe of blue that is really cool!
    Did you glue it to tne stepping stone? Great Idea! But now it could call for some of your charming mosaic???
    I am almost there I have been walking around the garden and having my DH move things around.
    I love the cup feeder too. Oh so many things to do
    Spring is Sprung we have several batches of California Poppies! ;(*~*);
    But got to be careful out in the garden I came back in with a headache and starting sneezing, I thought taking the tumor out was going to stop my sinus problems. .(++).

    Smick, you're going to really spoil the little birds that come visit your yard. The one you put in your birdbath is so cute too!

    Sylvia, I'm so sorry you have to be careful in the garden.
    I know you must be looking forward to being out in it again.
    Take care of yourself!

    How cool that is, Micki! I've never seen vases like those. The bird looks unusual too. Good combination!!

    Sylvia, I'm so glad to see you posting again, but sorry you're sneezing. That can't feel very good after all you've been through. Makes my sinuses hurt just to think about it! Take it slow, so you don't have a setback!

    Smick ... wonderful vessels for the birds! Love those vases & you told me on G-Chat that they were already striped! Very, very lovely & creative the way you put it all tog. Love the t-cup, too...how did you attach the copper pipe? Soon the birds will be lovin' you! Spring is in the air!!!

    nanagrandma...good to see you post! Take good care & keep on doin' whatever you're doin' ... it must be working! Jeanne S.

    Jeanne, I attached an end cap to the bottom of the saucer with GE II. Then it just sits on top of the copper pipe.

    Sylvia, Yes I used the GE II to attach the bottom vase to the stepping stone as well as filling the bottom vase about half way with play sand that I used for tumbling glass. I can't use the sand elsewhere since it has small shards of glass in it...but it works well for this since noone will be coming into contact with the glass in it. I wanted to make sure that it was not top heavy. I didn't want it to tip over.
    I am so glad to hear that you are getting out into the garden some. Please don't over do it...I still am worrying about you. I am sorry that it is making you sneeze... that is the way we clean out the sinuses...but I bet it doesn't feel to good yet.
