Decorate Your Birdbath Every Christmas With This Clever Gorgeous Idea

Easy
I have to admit that I love decorating for Christmas outdoors just as much as indoors! My latest outdoor Christmas decorating project is a birdbath placed under a large tree in a garden bed in our front yard. It used to look very unsightly with chipped paint, some rust and it even had a chunk broken off in the middle so it could no longer hold any water. It no longer could be used as a healthy birdbath for birds but I did not want to get rid of it. I updated with a new coat of paint and now have fun decorating it for the different seasons during the year. This is how I decorated it for Christmas!
Even though I don’t use mine as a birdbath any more the instructions and ideas I am sharing with you will work on any birdbath that has a wide shallow basin and is not filled with water.
Problem #1 – Cost
Problem #2 – Evenly Attaching The Christmas Ball Ornaments
Problem #3 – Disappearing Extra Large Ornament
Problem #4 – Losing The Christmas Decoration In a Strong Wind
This also gave the decoration a bit more height when placed in the basin of the birdbath.
Problem #5 – Having To Redecorate The Birdbath Every Year
Here is how the Christmas decorated birdbath looks in the front yard. The snow fell just in time for when I wanted to take some photographs. It really adds a gorgeous splash of Christmas colour to the front yard.
A strong wind did shortly arrive so I was able to test how the added weight actually worked. I love how the ribbon ends look blowing in the breeze!
