I don't think the tires were cut. The frog feet look like bath mat material. Love both of the planters. They would add lots of color to a yard/garden.

I can do a Bathmat. Is Eye Lashes bath mat too? Thanks, I think I have some hose around here somewheres. I can get flyswatters for ladybug but what is Head?

I think the head is a large plastic flower pot or mixing bowl cut in half and painted black.

Thanks

I'm sure the bathmat could be used for the eyelashes. Please post a picture if you make them.

This is cute. I think you can buy those eye lashes at craft stores. I know I've seen them on car headlights, so they must be available.

The top pic looks like eyes are 2 lawn mower tires. The eyelashes could be made from a small rubber car mat like you put in back seat on floor, they are about 12 in. x 18 in or something like that, find a small 1. They are cute & can grow something in them too. Jan

Wonder what kind of paint would be best? They are just too cute!

I've made a number of tire planters in the past. I always used latex paint.

My Latex Paint I used 12 yrs ago is still holding out. Exterior Latex I will go with. Have to get the Bowl and Flyswatters for the Ladybug. Saturday when I go to town. Am Handicapped if you remember, Don't Drive but go to town once a week. My Tires are Small Trailer too big for the Frog Eyes.

Someone started a new thread with instructions instead of posting here

Here is a link that might be useful: Thread with instructions

How are u keeping the small tires on the frog from falling off the big tire and what is the eyes made of on the frog I think both of them is awesome can u made anything else from the old tires

The eyes on the frog looks like some kind of plastic bowl and I would assume that the small tires are attached with some strong adhesive and possibly some rebarb from behind for support. The link to the instructions is no longer working unfortunately.

The three bottom tires are regular car tires and the top two are tires from a

golf cart. I left the rims on for the eyes and painted them white. I had leftover roofing paper and cut circles for the eyes and eye lashes. The feet were from a old bathmat I had and the long legs were from some old hoses. The middle tire was

put on with two long screws and tightened well. I pretty much mad this from what was found around the property. I just really bought the spray pain.

The small tires needed two screws each- I was sorry I didn't put them up further to the front but they were hard to manage so we did what we could. I think it came out pretty good. It's sitting on

our 800 foot driveway and greets people as them come in!
