Hi indigosunshine, I'm so chuffed that I have inspired you! :) The picture below shows where my 'quirky corner' is going to go! (I've been tossing up whether to call it a "Kwirky Korner" or "Cwirky Corner"!!! LOL! We've just pulled out an undercover, free-standing sandpit that I built years ago, (It was a huge wooden box with a ledge/seat around all 4 sides....the kids played in it for hours! Seeing my youngest is now 13 it's high-time for the sandpit to go! LOL!) and I'm going to revamp that space. I'm going to attach 'quirky' things to the little fence on the left. (I built that too! I went to several wood-work courses when my daughter was a baby! LOVED IT!) Just showing off here! LOL! I have a couple of large rusty wrenches, some old door handles....and my 'croc' shoe planters - all 2 of them! I wanted to turn that fence into a huge 'croc' wall but then got distracted with all the other quirky ideas! LOL! I want to make the kettle BBQ that's hiding under some shadecloth, on the left, into a plant container. I want to attach a big clock I got at an auction (for $1!!!!!) to the wall and the 'fire guard' on the right, has no 'legs' so it might go up on one of the walls too. I want some windchimes and sun-catchers too, and a chair and coffee table! As you can see....I have big plans! Now I need the time, energy and "oooomph" to get it done! :) Where are you going to set up your quirky corner? We'll have to be 'quirky corner buddies' and encourage each other! :)

Thanks for the website. That's handy info. I just tried to upload a picture but it was rejected due to size. I'll have to play with it and see if I can reduce the size. But believe me there is nothing to drool over. I love it though.

1st, I'll be posting one of the teapot totems later today, just need to add the drips & final beading. THIS is my best one yet! 2nd, I'm fortunate to have a flea mkt right near me - auction every Wed. What doesn't sell is usually left for "free-time". Occasionally, someone will buy a whole row & I'll pay 25-50 cents for a teapot. (I get all my "junk" this way) The picture is not my whole stash, just needed to lay some out to get started. For totems, you don't need lids - that's what usually breaks & no one wants just the pot. 3rd, nonacook - I'd love to know what to do w/ lids too! I do have one windchime in mind.

Love your totems and I like the grouping. I have 2 finished and am waiting to gather enough glass for 1 more because I think they look best in 3's. Gotta wait till I find more glass pieces at the right price..........as this is supposed to be fun not a crunch on the budget!!! My faves are the cut glass ones with a little color throwed in. Have a good weekend all!
