Tacky Yard Art

I get sooo excited when warm weather comes along. I just want to stay outside put my hands in the dirt and plant as many things as I can. I'm also in love with yard sales and I usually purchase the obscure items no one else seems to care about. For instance, clear Christmas ornaments, left over paint, a sticker maker and bowling balls. Oh yes, that's right, bowling balls. In trying to keep with my (unspoken) promise to produce more crafts and use things I already have. I made some fun garden art yesterday and here is the result.
I purchased some colored glass discs from the Dollar Tree and commenced to gluing.
Don't worry, I had supervision while using the hot glue gun. I still have one bowling ball left. Any ideas?

  1. I love it Rachel!! My neighbor has been working on making her bowling ball a mosaic covered with bits of broken crockery and rhinestones. She is going to put it in her backyard as well. I will have to take you over there to see it next time you visit.
