  • This is an easy to make yard decoration that sparkles in the sunlight
  • These are the Plastic Mirror Stars, found at Michaels, that inspired the project
  • 3 different sized Terracotta pots
  • Base coat the pots, inside & out, with white acrylic paint to ensure that the paint color used is true
  • 2 coats of paint, inside & out, on each pot
  • Spray with 2 light coats of Krylon clear coat so that the 'chime' can be used outdoors.
  • Using Kwik Seal Clear Caulk to 'glue' on rhinestone stars makes them hold up to summer showers
  • Use nylon cord, tri-beads, & wooden beads to space the 3 pots
  • Tie the cord to an 'S' hook to hang outside

Making a succulent garden in an old birdbath

Upcycled an old, leaky birdbath into a beautiful succulent garden! I mixed about 2 parts compost to 1 part builder's sand and mounded it up in the birdbath basin using small rocks, then added the succulents.http://ourfairfieldhomeandgarden.com
