Beautiful.

Be Safe, Rach

WOW! Nice plant stand! Those butterflies are fabulous!

This was such a neat idea. I adore it.

Very pretty! I love the butterflies.

Pretty neat gal. I am glad you were inspired to do such a wonderful piece...I think everyone should do one...lol

Maria,

I love your plant stands. So cool. Especially love that butterfly. My DH looked at me like I was CRAZY when I told him I wanted to mosaic all of our concrete blocks. LOL. I'll have to show him yours, Slow's and Flags and he will change his mind.

Any tips?? Did you use the plates to cover the holes?? Thinset and thinset for grout and glue??

I really like the 3-D-ness of it! I still want to make some of these, just gotta getta round tuit!

How pretty! Looks so summer-y with the "flutter-bys"! They look wonderful with the plates you used.

DH thinks I'm nuts, too, mermaid...we've got some that've been laying in a back flowerbed for years and years that I want to tackle - one I get them dug out that is.

What a great idea with the plates!
Very nice.

Looks great Maria...I love those butterflies!

those are pretty neat. are the butterfies candy dishes. they might would work on top as a bird bath also, if they are deep enough.

Well, SHRTY: You did a great job. Congrats. Very pretty. Aren't they fun, quick and easy??? - and so useful.

Wow!..........never thought of using a whole plate....un-broken! very cool idea!

Thanks! Mermaid. I used thinset to "glue" them on, but I used sanded grout. I still have trouble using thinset. Flag,I think, said she covered the holes with tiles. I found plates that fit. I have the plant stand by my garage and I have this at the end of my driveway ( excuse the weeds), so I thought the whole plates would look good:

Shrty,

Missed your cute garden!! How cool is that with all of the plates!! A true mosaicer driveway. LOL. So you used sanded grout, hmm.. I agree thinset and I are still not quiet ready for prime inside time yet.

that is a good idea with the plates in your flower bed, sometimes some of the plates are just too nice to break up. i really don't use plates too much cuz i like smooth surfaces , but i have learned new ways to use them here, from ya'll to where all the pieces can be used.

oh this is great shrty! those butterflies are so pretty, what a great feature this is going to be in your garden!

SHRTY: I LOVE that little vignette at the corner of your driveway. There's some pretty plates in there. Now, tell me exactly where you live. Have you heard about midnight requisitions?

he,he, slow...you have to requesition some of those weeds. too!!

Got plenty of my own, thankyouverymuch. However, they, along w/some of my plants are dying from the heat and neglect. Predicted temp today is 104.
