Seen it on Pinterest: Garden Totems

I found a project on Pinterest called garden totems. I love them because it adds a little whimsy to my garden and I love my garden. I'm always looking for recycled projects for garden decor.

 I had a pretty large collection of glass but, I wanted a few pieces with a little more details. I ended up just doing a piece to experiment with the process. I love how the smaller one turned out but, now I'm ready for smaller and more colorful pieces.

This is a temporary setting for right now, I plan to relocate them later.

Acheiving Your Dream Yard



Do you ever dream about what your yard could look like some day? As you look through garden catalogs filled with beautiful trees, shrubs, flowers and pictures of beautifully landscaped yards--complete with ponds and garden sculptures--the choices seem endless. Before ordering hundreds of plants or giving up because you cannot decide what you really want, here are a few things to consider.

Pick a style, while you decide the main purpose for your yard, such as lots of cookouts, children or just a retreat area. Then pick a focal point, such as a fountain, outdoor fireplace, or an interesting statue. Then begin to work on the overall theme of your yard.
