Vickie Thank You!

I just happened to be poking around Amazon and the gazing ball is back in stock! I have to say that inflation hit it hard, bc it did not cost that much back in September, last year. Blinking Blinking Blinking

When I saw your post, I couldn't resist. These little guys live on top of a porch stone column. The little one under mom or dad has a broken foot, so he needs more care. I used to have these in or near plant pots on rocks, but they were picked up (and thankfully dropped), I guess because they looked like bugs to the birds! I made the little bird bath with a small pot and saucer. Working on making better birds with sculpey clay.

Oh yeah, and I found that little plate they're on at the Goodwill. It was perfect!

Jeanne,
Love how you've brightened up your yard decor!

My sister and niece found these for my yard. Being a lover of Jeeps these should fit right in. Found a cute little coleus that should look good in them.

Nice! Maybe you can find some jeep-loving gnomes or fairies to drive them.

I agree

I had a glass birdbath for years, and it had a hummingbird on it, but it broke over the Winter bc I forgot to turn it upside down to let water run off D'Oh! so I got a new one! Hurray!

I really like it too. Cardinals are one of my favorites also. Knowing me, I would have tried to glue my other one back together. Whistling I'm always fixing my broken lawn decor or finding another purpose for it somewhere. But you did find a great replacement.

Thank you ladies. Lovey dubby Lovey dubby

Jeanne, I am the same way. I'll fix anything before throwing it away. My other birdbath is fixed back together. It ain't pretty but it's not blatantly noticable unless you're close up to it. Hilarious! If I could have glued the first glass one back together I would have, but it was broken into too many pieces to salvage. Glare I'm patient, but not *that* patient. Blinking Blinking Hilarious! The good news is that it was recyclable. Hurray! Hurray!
