I sure hope someone has seen these because I am not sure how to decribe them. I have seen them take the elphant ear leaf and cover it with a concret mixture and make an ornement for the garden or a bird bath BUT I need the mixture to do it any ideas ?? seems it was concrete ( no rocks)... and maybe fiberglass while I am looking what about the mixture for pots seams it had peat and perilite in it Help |

That was in a flyer for a new magazine similar to Birds and Blooms. My mom wants me to make one, too. I can't remember the name of the magazine though. It's a new one. |

The name of the magazine is Garden Gate. I tried to find it on their website, but it's timing out on the first page and asking to check back later. |

Here is an URL for the Garden Gate Mag. I just went to the mag site, then online extras and there was a place for this project. My neighbor tried her hand at this during the summer and did really well. http://www.gardengatemagazine.com/extras/53birdbat h.php Have fun. |

I just love this project. You should post it in the how-to's if you haven't already. It's so beautiful. I could see 2 or three of these stacked up as a fountain. My mom once made a fountain out of satellite dishes. They kept changing their service and was suck with the equipment, so a satellite dish fountain was made. It was rad, but i think the elephant ear things would be prettier. |
