It'll look cool in the garden as a statement piece, surrounded by shrubs and flowers.Helpful Reply -

Pick out a 5-foot area, circular if possible. Place medium sized rocks (light colored or painted white) around to form the circle. Buy a painter's easel. Weatherproof it with Thompson's Water Seal. Let dry completely. Place the easel in the center of the circle inserting it into the dirt a little to anchor it (or cement it in). Plant matching flowers around the base of the easel. Place the stained glass on the easel as a showpiece for your pool. Attach it to the easel with fishing line (it's clear) so it won't fall off or the wind won't blow it off. GOOD LUCK! :)Helpful Reply -

Does it have a sturdy frame?? You don't need to weatherproof it, I was taught you could use turtle wax on the glass for a nice shine, and repel water. Be careful it dleant blow down and break!!Helpful Reply -
