          Really lovely. I started on recently in an old chamber pot.

            Thank you!
            I never would have sacrificed one of my pots, but I saw the idea on Pinterest, and by coincidence visited a friend's garden who was upset about the destruction of one of his pots. I asked if he would mind donating it, as it had broken in exactly the right shape to use the idea - I was just lucky finding one!

                My 7 year old daughter would love me to make something like that for her.

                That is completely inspired!
                The snail seems to like it too.

                  The snail was the closest thing I could find to a fairy. (There is no shortage of the darned things in my garden!). I'm pretty sure the fairies had a party there for Summer Solstice. But I wasn't lucky enough to catch them at it, and take a photo. ;)

                    Excellent!!!!!! :thumbsup:

                    I've seen similar things on Pinterest too and fancied a go. But, I wanted an indoor version to put next to my dolls house :redface: And I haven't quite come up with the right "mix" ... still thunking :heehee:

                    Top job! :star:
