I love to put old wood in my garden. I also have a lot of old bones, like leg bones from horses and cows. I know that it may sound kinda strange, but we live in the country and my grandkids love to explore the woods around here. I also have a buffalo skull, and a lot of old cans. Sounds wierd I know.

Janet - I wish you hadn't posted that site -
Now I could really put those gold legs to good use. They'd look really cute sticking up just over the fence.
I'm outta here to check more thing out on that site.

I haven't read this whole post, but I just came across this wind chime that I use more for decoration than wind. It's by my front door, and was given to me by a 1st grade class after I taught the 9-week plant class to them called "Growing with Plants". To this day I remember most of the kids and still get hugs!

It'll be a month before this will be a reality. It helps to know it's close by. Honestly the promise of spring is the only reason I get out of bed all winter. Later, Love, Lisa

Lisa - I bought yet another gazing ball last week and while I was standing in line to pay for it, for some reason I thought of you. :wink:

Char, I love it. And it is there just for your enjoyment. Makes me want to go to the Garage Sales today.

Lisa I finally got a gazing ball! I got 2. Ceramic, purple, one larger than the other. Early on in spring, I got a deal on 2 pedestals at a craft store close out. I waited all summer before I could find the balls that even came close to offsetting the color. Pic to follow, LOL, after morning coffee.
