things already used/found in the house/garden: Lead Crystals glass? Flower vase? Inverted Clay Pots? Bird bath? Statuaries? Lamp shade (crystal or(Dale)Tiffany style?) Musical instruments (trumpet,etc.) Pumpkin (shaped into halloween motif) * * * * Amor est vitae essentia. Love is the essence of life.

they can also look good just laying on the ground.I'd get just one of those plant pillars and set on their.or just anything laying round the yard.even set on a tree stump. i made one out of a old bowlingball and painted the ball a metallic purple and glued those colored glass stoes on all over(were pinkish)was real neat looking....gave to neighbor when moved * * * * I will age ungracefully until I become an old woman in a small garden..doing whatever the Hell I want! http://community.webshots.com/user/njoynit03 http://community.webshots.com/user/njoynit http://photos.yahoo.com/njoynit03

Oh Njoynit, that is so neat! We found an old segment of ceramic drain pipe in our yard and made it into a stand for our sundial. Something like that could work. * * * *
