These started out as one totem, but it got a bit big. so I made it into two. I am happy with them, they have not made it outside yet as it has been raining like crazy when I get home from work.

    VERY PRETTY pair! I really like the glass you chose and how you put them together. Especially the first one.

    Thanks everyone!
    can't wait to get em outside!
    a neighbor was out walking his dog last week, we were out by the front flower bed, he stopped to chat. looked at my totems, kinda gave me the look like,, "what is that?" so I told him,, he gave me the rolled eyes look then,, oh pisssshaw I say!! at least I know he won't be stealing them!
    Hubby had asked me if I was sure I wanted to put them in that flower bed,( very close to the road) in case someone wanted to steal them, so I guess he might think they are cool,, if he doesn't want them stolen! LOL

    I like the way you mixed the colors in these totems. Great job.

    I like the different textures in the 2nd one especially that swirly plate,the toppers are nice, I love the swan on 2nd 1 & the reversing of the 2 identical green "rose bowls" I guess you call them, makes it more interesting & sure changes the look!! Jan

    They are both very pretty! Love the odd shaped clear vase in the second one. It really adds an interesting element to that totem. I really like the glass ball on top of the first one though. Things like that really make the totems look more polished. Great job!

    They are both terrific!!! Good job!

    I love them both, but I think the first one is my fav. Very good combinations.

    The odd shaped clear vase in the first totem was a wine carafe, I think, and the round topper on the next one was the lid topper for the wine carafe, These are fun to make. I brought these up from the basement the other day, and the hub's said, these are really neat, where are you getting them? I told him I am making them,, he was in awe.. too funny..I guess he didn't realize all that extra glass stuff that he keeps finding in the dishwasher is in these totems,, LOL

    Both are really nice, hard to choose a favorite. Loving that green glass.

    Please advise on the glue you are using. I chuckled at your neighbor story. My neighbors are all in wonder of my gardening and use of found itmes (Junk). I've only been here 1.5 years and everyone stops by to ask about my things. It's a great way to get acquainted. LOL. Molly
