    Nice job, Excessfroufrou! I especially love the amber totem, though you may want to glue a large glass plate to the bottom for better stability (you can bury it under the mulch and no one will know it's there). It would really be a shame if it were to topple and break.

    Those are lovely.

    I also like the amber one - but the blue 'lady' is special as well.

    Great job!! Love the amber one and the blue lady one!! Glad to have you join us and I can't wait to see what else you've been up to!

    Great job!! I do not do totums. I have 2 very active dogs that have the run of our garden But, the blue and the amber ones are my favorites. Thank you for sharing your work. Jlily

    YOU DID IT!!!!! YOU POSTED PICTURES!!! I remember how excited I was when I first got the hang of uploading pics or is it downloading? I still accidentally upload giant pics and make other ForumFumbles what have not been sent to Disney World yet.

    Your Totems look well planed and the colors are beautiful. The pieces are unique together. Good Job!!!

    I have one piece of correction advice to give you- EAT MORE CHOCOLATE. I preach a heavy chocolate gospel.

    And above all else, Welcome Dear Friend and fellow tea-totemer. SWAK!!!!!

    Your totems are very pretty!

    Nice to see you've mastered the pic posting thing and looking forward to seeing more of your creations. I like your screen name!

    Great totems, you may just have the "totem-bug" the same as so many of us here! ;-)

    I haven't been able to do any totems because my garden is confined to a balcony. I can't even do the kind that would sit on stakes/rebar/pipe that is stuck in a planter because I have too many other things stuck in planters. lol! Love your first efforts! They all look very pretty in different color combos. I like that bright yellow one ... it really caught my eye!

    And thank goodness I am able to see your pictures here at work! I'm going nuts because I can't see pictures that anyone posts from places like Photobucket here at work. They have somehow managed to even block those! Ack! So thanks for the picture (that I can see) and keep 'em coming!

    Welcome to a great forum too :^)

    OOOHHH those are so pretty. I like the blue girl best. But the yellow really is pretty too. Glad you can post pic. I had a hard time doing it too. Be sure to show us more when you make them.

    Luv your totems!
    Especially like the amber one, wait a minute I also like the blue one, oh and that yellow one is so darn cute!!
    Can't wait to see your next creations.
    Keep em coming :)

    Well thank goodness your picture posting worked, LOL, so now you can share your garden with us! Welcome to the gang here.

    JLily, I've got 7 Whippets running in the back yard and they've not yet broken a totem. Go for it.

    hugs, Karen

    Thanks for all the lovely comments, and I am addicted to totems, I have twelve more in various stages all over my sunroom and itching to shop for more special pieces.I'll post some more pics soon, also I did glue a plate to the bottom of the amber one to stabilize it.

    WELCOME! You've done a wonderful job on all your totems. I love how they all have some color to them.
