WACKY plant

13 years ago

You probably noticed the UGLY thingy in my previous post. I think it was a lamp???

Took off the Cherubs. Painted. Added a solar light, globe, & bead stamen.

It's still on the deck, awaiting a coat of poly. Just had to share. I think this will give color all season to my perennial garden. HATE when nothing is blooming!

Can't wait to see how it looks tonight after the solar light kicks in!!!

Reminder, you DON'T need the whole solar lamp... just use the small actual lamp piece inside your own globe! The nice small ones are only $3 at Walley. Using more??? You can buy a boxful at about $1.50ea.
