Bottle Trees and Garden Art

I love my garden art about as much as I love my garden. My newest addition was made by my son, Zack. When I saw Ginger's Bottle tree (Law of the Land blogger) I knew I had to have one. Zack is an artist with a welder so he was drafted. He finished my bottle tree a few weeks ago. It occupies a place of honor in my little round bed out front. I was tickled when I found the pretty blue bottle in my dad's barn. I love the way Zack curved little wires around some of my bottles - they look like metal vines. By the way, if you live in middle Tennesse, Zack will make you a bottle tree for a reasonable price. leave me a comment if you are interested.

Some more of my favorite garden art objects are around my pond. I recycled the fish from a fish bowl base - The little frog and snail are pot stands that I used to rest him on. He was just the thing to hold my cactus pot. Who could not like the little pottery turtle and her nest of pebble eggs?













There's a blue bird (over sized to say the least) hiding in my kitchen window box. I'm surprised that the wren bird didn't build a nest in it. And my oldest and most favorite is the cherub sitting by my front steps. this piece of art has moved with me three times - I hope it is home for good now -I'm too old to move again and it is too!
