Bubbles said:It's been too hot to use the backyard, so no reason to light it up yet.


I totally understand, same thing here! We had to replace the patio umbrella on our deck earlier this summer and I forked over the extra $20 for one with solar lighting. It's been too darned hot in the evenings to even think about sitting out there so I'll have to wait for cooler weather to enjoy the lights. Thumbs down

I have to confess to a "paper lantern fetish." I buy 'em all the time and have enough to hang from all the tree limbs. I think we've used them once, and even then, everyone wound up inside. By the time it's cool enough to use them again, it'll be our rainy season (I hope), so I won't want to risk leaving them out. I think I'll just string 'em up all over the living room one of these days and have neighbors and friends over for margaritas in homage to the rain gods who've abandoned us.

Thanks everso Smiling I am always collecting prettiful and funky weird things and adding them here and about. Methinks we should also have a thread on artfull hardscaping so we can show what we've done with sheds, paths, patios, bird baths, trellis, fences, gates and other stuff too. I luv looking at what everyone is doing and it inspires me to think of new things to do Lovey dubby

Deb that is an Inukshuk that a student made for me.

Here is a new friend. Everyone meet Slugo. Slugo meet everyone. I'm thinkin he will be a banana slug, or a pink slug with a purple shell. I'm not sure but I better get a white base coat on him soon. He's going to sit beside a little terracotta coloured bench that I found in MT.

I also adore solar flutterbys Lovey dubby I have coloured and clear ones. They only last a season or 2 but they are under $10 at the hardware store and change from red to blue to green and some to gold at night so a fabby deal IMPO.

You REALLY have been holding out on us! Love the flutterbys. Lovey dubby I wasn't familiar with Inukshuks - very interesting! http://www.inukshukgallery.com... I've built rock cairns before on beaches and would like to use a few of our stones to make some for the gardens. After seeing your little Inukshuk I'd like to try one - I could use it to welcome visitors to let them know... "You are on the right path"! Big Grin

They still use them in Nunavut where you can go round and round on the tundra if you don't have a landmark. Some of the big ones you can spot from the air.
