I'm always looking for "Garden Junk" projects!
An old wrought iron head board
or an old chandelier
Painted wooden dowels and
plastic Christmas balls...clever!

ReplyDeleteThank you Jedidja!
DeleteHi Suzy, I'm a gardener and your linked post to Dagmar's blog caught my attention. Love all these projects, but the scary guy with tools is super cute - would make a great fall decor item. I didn't make it myself, bought I purchased an upcycled wind chime from an artist from Canada for my sunroom which I love. Happy gardening and junking - two of my favorite pastimes!

ReplyDeleteWhat did you use to glue the metal flowers together?❤️
ReplyDeleteI did not make these. These are photos off the Internet. Under every photo you can find the website where I found them but to glue the metal flowers together, you could use a glue called E 6000 that they sell in craft stores. It will hold metal to metal.
