Very smart.

It is lovely, and being so shiny it will be easier to keep looking clean and smart with just a quick rinse every now and then!

lol nice one janey ,, iv been looking at these to but couldnt make up my mind, it looks great now i see it amongst plants ;o))

21 Jul, 2010

 

I've wanted one for ages San and couldn't make up my mind which colour...they do silver now and black, but I thought they were too modern for my garden...I did like the green, but then you wouldn't see it amongst the plants, would you?

iv seen blue to janey but thought to bright and may clash with plants, this is better more natural, love it ;o) green wouldnt do either your right

Ah that's nice of mum Janey , I haven't a pond , we had a large one before we moved and found it very hard work plus the heron would keep pinching the fish this time round we have several water features , mind you I do occasionally mention a small one would be nice ..... LOL... yes I think Pops and Ted would love it ;o))

Oh fancy a Heron coming into your garden Amy.....they can be pests can't they...but amazing to see and taking off. The water barrel feature you have is looks lovely and to have the sound of water would be great.....

Lovely birdbath in a lovely setting. I like these glazed ones. I have an older concrete one (square) which I bought over to NZ with me, when I came in late 1998, but sadly it appears to have developed a leak, so I will just have to sit a plant or succulents in it now. So I went out last week & bought a very pretty glazed one, which is now set up on the lawn ... no garden around it yet, but will get that in over the next few weeks. I originally put a vivid blue one on Hold in the shop, the week before I purchased it, but when I went back to get it, I spotted one which was far more unusual in a dull grey/blue tone with burgundy & cream & brown sort of dripping down the sides of the bowl & mottled on the stand. I then couldn't make my mind up, & kept walking backwards & forwards between the two, but ended up taking the the more unusual one home, & I am so happy with it. They also had smaller ones in glazed bright red, lime-green, strong yellow, & vivid orange. I must admit to liking the lime-green one!

Hello Dwyllis, Thank you for all the great comments you have been putting on my pics, I'm really pleased you are enjoying GoY, there are some great gardens on here. I've been really pleased with this bird bath, the I'm afraid my pets have collared it as their favourite drinking bowl! Yours sounds to be a beauty, I can picture it well with your description, I think I may have seen one similar over here, I love that type of glazing. This one of mine has added a focal point to this small square garden and looks good in Winter too, when there's not too much colour around....:o)
