My glass bird bath

A few weeks before Christmas I had mentioned to Mr C, that I had seen some lovely glass birdbaths at our local hardware store, but hesitated to buy one so near Christmas. Imagine my delight when I opened my Christmas gift to discover this lovely bird bath.

Mr C decided that the stand, which is sold separately, was not very substantial, so we will build our own, in fact I have a very sturdy metal plant pot stand which may be just the thing to hold the bird bath.

I love that the birds on the bath are goldfinch, which are abundant around our garden during the summer months.

  3. KeeWee,

    I saw these bird baths in Southern States. I was leaning towards the butterfly and dragonfly ones. Very pretty aren't they! I did not see the stands.

  8. I haven't seen those bird baths here in the north. It's always a surprise when we find out our husbands heard something we said.
