There you go Diana! You'd be a natural with ideas like that! Each one is unique to the person who made it and can include whatever ideas your mind can think up and find a way to apply. I have several ceramic bunnies I want to work into some of mine. LOL

People stick all sorts of decorative things in their gardens around here, didn't know they were called totems. I've never seen any quite like the ones in your photo's. People here use glass balls, figures, metal objects of all sorts. Looks like a really cool project!!!! Let us know how it goes!!! The glass ones are really pretty.

Oh Tink. Those are cute! Looks like you've found a fun hobby. I hope you are able to profit from doing something you enjoy!!

Tink, I was looking at a Country Living magazine yesterday and ran across something that I thought that would interest you. They had taken a globlet and turned it upside down and (I'm sure it was glued) placed a plate on top of it. They used a ceramic plate, but you could use a glass plate too. You could serve so many things from it! Really cute! With all of the shabby chic style it was something that would fit right in with that decor.

My garden totems and more.

cleartotem.jpg This is a clear totem... my first effort to make one. The patterned glass really sparkles in the sunlight.

birdhousetotem.jpg This is my blue birdhouse totem. I love the color!

greentotem.jpg My green totem with the articoke top really compliments the pink flowers surrounding it.

hennchicksboot.jpg My child size cowboy boot with hen & chicks growing in it.

I think they are really nice Tink. You did a good job. Did you have the materials on hand or did you have to pick some up? Ya know, I'm just not sure I would ever want one. I don't know. I do know one thing, you'd have to run like the dickens to get it out of a hail storm....lol
