@blue23rose Vickie, this is what I use to glue my pieces to each other.

I think after they are glued you need to let them dry for several months before putting them outside in the elements. Some things stayed glued and some things don't. I have had a problem with some of the spoons on the back of the glass flowers not wanting to stay stuck. On the totems if you put a large base on the bottom, the wind can't blow it over. I use large plates upside down or microwave oven plates. On the totems if a plate in between vases is right side up, it collects rain water and then gets discolored from algae. Also due to the air left inside of a vase after it is glued, they collect condensation inside from the sun. Not sure how you could get the air out before gluing it. Shrug! I hope this helps you
Vickie when you start creating.

Thank you bumplbea, Vicki, Dana, and Vickie. I am pleased that you like what I have decorated my gardens with. Not very many people ever see all this "stuff" but I do and it does make me happy. As the flowers fill in, things get moved. I will post more when I can.
Yard decor, repurposing, and flowers,
