I love having sculptures in the garden also. We like creating our own. First try was my design Mouth of Truth. She came out pretty good for beginners. Then saw "The Mouth of Truth" in Rome...had to have one. Also created two statues from Salvador Dali painting. I say create your own and your own lore. It is your world to create. Have fun. You can see mine...link is on my page. We have loved creating and still creating ours.

I hope Santa is very good to you all and brings you whatever garden gifts you want. I'd really like a garden helper/handyman but they are pretty scarce. I would also like a garden bench altho I might spend too much time just sitting and not gardening! ;-D I think those Travelocity gnomes are cute also and QVC does have them - link below. There are not a lot of 'things' I need for my garden and I like to choose them myself so I'm not making garden gift suggestions to family. No longer buying gardening books. Would like a new birdbath to replace the cheap plastic one but I made the birds a glass totem birdbath and only the chipmunks use it. The birds seem to prefer the cheap plastic one that's elevated 6' high - I guess they feel safer there. I buy a few garden decorations every year mostly at yard sales and have made more totems, etc. than my garden needs. Mother's Day is when I get my garden goodies, not Christmas, as the plant nurseries have just opened here and my enthusiasm is high. Right now I'm hibernating just like my garden!

The gals on the garden junk forum use GE Silicone II for windows and doors on all their glass garden totems. Mine have been outside in the cold, heat, sprinklers, etc. with no problem. It does dry pretty clear, but guess it might depend what you are using it on--because it does show a bit. Here's a website that might be helpful to you. So whatcha making?

Found a metal coat-hat rack at a garage sale for $3, painted it white. For a few years it acted as a trellis for passion vine but the area got too shady. Now it's a bottle tree.
