Linda, you keep outdoing yourself. I like the extras you add like the cup and flower. They are a nice touch. I have been putting totems together for the first time and am anxious to be able to put them outside. Thank you for sharing. - Marylee

This morning when my neighbor went to exercise class I snuck the totem into her garden. I'm originally from west Mi too, & I went to visit Mayme a few yrs . We could do a ton of damage junking together!!We had a great time. I was home in May to see my Dad, he has alzheimers & is in a care facility near Grand Rapids. I may try to come again in sept or oct. My husband's sister & brother in law live in Holland. Jill

This is a really fun thread. I like to see what everyone has in their garden and how thoughtful about art and creative you all are. I often think I'm going to "make" some garden art but then never get around to it. I don't decorate the garden with a whole lot of art. I have a few decorative stakes and then a few glazed birdbaths and some copper sprinklers that I use more for decoration than watering. My mom has a very cute piece of garden art. The story behind it is that we were at Hever Castle in England and they were selling all kinds of cement statues. We fell in love with so many of them. My mom couldn't part with this guy. Hever Castle was down a hill so we had to hike back up the hill, carry him on the rest of our tour and then carry him home on the plane. He weighed between 30-35 pounds so it was like carrying a little person around. He was well worth it though!

I will Kayjones! :) Phyllis, I think it's time to wander on over there. :) I'm already arranging my glass. I ran it all through the dishwasher and it looks all sparkly and shiny. :D Blessings, Haley (who's DH has not seen what she's bought yet, ::Giggle!::)
