Well, while I was away I think I missed your tall vases, but what a great stand one made for your gazing ball. It's colorful and I love the bend! Great job!

Perfect... I love it.... It looks fabulous in your garden. Great job.

What a beautiful gazing ball & stand, looks like it came that way!!Jan

What a wonderful look! Very good!

I love it! I remember them. That vase looks much better in the garden. What a great color! You had a good eye to spot their potential when they were on sale. It's perfect there and really looks good with the gazing ball.

I missed the vases too..... I really like this idea....is the vase crooked or bent or an optical illusion...looks really groovy curvy!!!

Thanks everyone. Yes the vase is crooked!! I have a blue one just like it!! Not sure what I'm going to do with it. Thinking bird feeder but haven't quite figured out how to make it set level on the vase. Any suggestions?

I remember the tall vases!!
The BB looks good with one of them.....

It looks like a big silver blossom! Very simple but cool combination. Now I can't wait to see what you do with the blue one. No suggestions on leveling the blue one though. :^(

I like that, and a very pretty setting for it too.

hugs, Karen

They look great together! The hot green really makes the GB pop!

regarding the blue vase/birdfeeder. What are you using for the feeder part that you are trying to make sit level on the vase?

This is just a thought- but, with all my critters, one of the things I always have to consider when putting things outside is how to keep it from getting knocked over.
What if you drove a pc of rebar or a wooden stake and slipped the vase upsidedown over it.
That might also help when you go to glue things to the top of it as you would have a small flat surface to work with.

Whatever you do be sure to post pics, that blue one is going to look outstanding in the garden!

Wow! I love this little *pop* of whimsy in your garden. The blue one would make a great stand for a bird spa. Look for a big, cloudy white bowl to use as the bath part.

What is your gazing ball made of. I found one at GW for $1.99. It is not as large of some of them...but it is a metal one...guess aluminum cause magnet will not stick to it. But metal cause it was scratched on the nickle sized flat spot on bottom and a bit rusted. Otherwise only one other small scruff on it. I love your set up there.

Thanks everyone!! twomonths: GB is glass very thin glass!!
akup: Thanks for the suggestion. I'm sure having trouble finding bowls for the bb.
garden2garden: I haven't found anything for the top yet.I like the idea of the rebar. I ususally glue a microwave plate to the bottom to keep it from tipping but since it isn't straight have to figure out something.
Glad you all like it in the garden neighbor said it's ungly with all the different plants to many colors!

Tell your neighbor to jump in a lake and keep creating, Luv. Your garden's whimsical and fun.
