2 Great Ideas For POTS --A Water feature, and a mosaic

Once again these ideas are from my favourite magazine,

" BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS "

2 more ideas for my " to do " list

I have shown the instructions for this simple, yet elegant, water feature.

Pity Mothers Day and My birthday have just passed !

(Below is the Mosaic Pot , I love the colours they have chosen )

Maybe 2 big Pots for Christmas and a little water pump ?

I have shown my Hubby the pictures of the Water Feature below, hopefully his mind is ticking over, 

saying " I think we can do that "

 

My BEACHY area ???

My everlovin' Husband  knows I love, my Beachy Garden Area!

He came home 0n Sunday and said " I've  bought you a surprise, Jody ( our son )  will be driving

in soon, its on the back of his ute "

When he drove in I was in SHOCK

Filling, and hanging out the back of the ute, was  a very, very, long  BOAT

In fact, on measuring it, the tape said ---- 11 feet, 6 inches long.
A bargain at a garage sale, $30 -

My beachy area is well under way, as you would have read in my blogs.

Where do I put it ?, how will I put it?, I definitely need some inspiration
Here are some sections of the garden I have done in the past.

These are the 2 tables ( originally doors )  I finished, mosaics, and, ceramic beach houses I made.

Maybe the boat could go around the pool area ?
I will keep you informed.

Girgarre - FARMERS MARKET, - GreatGarden Art

Last week we went to a large Farmers Market, in Victoria, Australia

A little place called Girgarre,   How do they do it The large towns can't !

I think its that Community Spirit, everybody is friendly, and they make it happen.

I only took a few photos as I was just too busy looking.

I thought this frog with his wheel barrow was so cute , and so clever

The next photo isn't  quite as close !

My grandson bought a kite, the large snake kite.

Don't worry he is over 6 foot ,so can manage it

The kites are so good now they can fly with hardly any wind

LETS GO FLY A KITE 

I always think of  "Mary Poppins 

When I was small I had a kite that was always getting tangled up.

Thinking back I wasn't very patient, maybe I was too small

My Christmas, Mosaic,Bollard Update ,-- And my next LARGE MOSIAC ( Am I mad )

I have now put in over 100 hours on my 6 FOOT CONCRETE BOLLARD,gradually, and patiently,

over the last 4 months.But I am tiring, and want to start my next venture.

 

My husband is putting together this large frame, ( for my next mosaic,)^

9 FEET IN WIDTH, 5 FEET IN WIDTH.

But in pale pastels,beautiful old English Plates,miniature pastel cats, old dolls heads, mirrors, etc.

Not like the bright ones I"ve been making.
TO GO IN THE AREA BELOW (across the fence, behind bricked area )

Although I have a problem, my husband won't finish this frame until I finish the Christmas Bollard

I am getting so sick of it, but I better keep soldiering on.
