Wow , the garden art is coming out of the woodwork ! Today ’s place - made ornaments are from Trina Koushmaro in Woodland , California . Trina says,“I found these plastic buoys washed up on the beach in cardinal California . I think it would be fun to recycle them in some creative fashion . So I decided to make them into frogs for my garden pond .
“ I paint them with outdoor acrylate resin paint , and made a red line for the all-embracing mouth . I found marbles for the heart that actually fit tightly in the loops on the top . But just to be safe , I used my glue gunslinger to plug them . After completion , the frogs came to life ! I ca n’t assist smile when I see them in the garden . ”So precious , Trina !
OK , cat , I ’m live back to full garden post tomorrow … I know some of you get raring with these report ! 🙂
