Love it! 👍😹Really enjoy seeing your Kitty's😂They are Momma's Helper's💖💋
Yes they are! Thank you : ) ♥
You’re fortunate to have been able to find each piece in the same or coordinated color
Yes it takes time to find all the right pieces to pull it together : )
Cat says, "Nice work, mom!" I'll be looking at glass at the Goodwill in a whole new way! The birdbaths are gorgeous! And how cool to fill some parts with marbles. This is my first time watching you work. I'm subscribing!
Thank you! I have another one almost ready to post, in the next few days! : )
You are so creative! Beautiful Bird Bath!
Thank you! 😊♥
I just discovered your channel and I’m obsessed. You make beautiful things!
Thank you so much! ♥
Absolutely beautiful ❤️ I've made flowers but never a birdbaths. Thank you for the inspiration. I can't wait to try it. Big fan from Texas ♥️🤠
Thank you! Have fun making your own creations! ♥
Please Show us your glass flowers.
Sandy, please show us your glass flowers.
@@kymberlyholcombe263 I don't know how to add pictures to this feed and I had back surgery a week ago, so either way, it may take a bit. Please advise me how to upload a picture. I only have 1 left. I gave an apple plate flower to a teacher and others to friends. ♥️😊
Beautiful birdbath. The most challenging part of your construction, in my opinion, is drilling holes through the glass plate. I so wish you had filmed that part! Otherwise a great video. Oh, your background scenery is so beautiful that I found myself looking more at that pond than at your project! Thanks for your effort.
Thank you! Yes I will have to video the drilling of the holes. Some glass is harder to drill through than others! Plates are easy, it's the lead glass or decorative glass that takes time..
@@MyLittleSliceofParadiseJust get your neighbor to do the hard ones. Lol 😝
This turned out so beautiful. I just finished my first one using clear glass, milk glass and the green glass. I will definitely make another one it was fun. Will you share a video of others you’ve made?
Lovely ❤️
Thank you! ♥
I've been making mushrooms for the yard with glass from thrift stores and solar lights. I use a lot of the marbles and glass drops and also get lucky and find a lot of them in the thrift stores. Also Dollar Tree or the clearance section at Hobby Lobby. Those get expensive quickly. Your things are beautiful.
Thank you! I will have to try making mushrooms sometime. It's fun shopping & thrifting for glass items to create ♥
Your dishes you called candy dish is antique bowls & are worth a lot!!!!
I wonder sometimes what they are worth! But at least they were put to good use : )
This birdbath is an absolute stunner! Gorgeous. This is the 3rd video of yours that I have seen and have now subscribed! You do incredible work.
Thanks for subbing! ♥
That's cool.
Thank you! ♥
I LOVE HOW THE GUY JUST GOES TROLLING BY IN THE BACKGROUND...😂😂😂
Haha right? If I knew him, I'd tell him to wave ; )
Love the bird bath. Going to make two for my garden beds next year. Have a great day.😊
Would love to see them! : )
Terrific way to up cycle I love your birdbath. It looks great.
What is all that noise? Thank youfor your beautiful bird bath tutorial I have that exact vase and mosaic plate ,I am a good follower but not a good creator thank God for people like you!
Thank you! The noise is mostly frogs croaking on the lake : )
Sooooooooo pretty; the birdies are gonna ❤️ it!!
I’m going to do this!!! Thank you!!! Your kitty likes it too.🐈. What an incredible property!
Have fun making your birdbath! And yes, I love my kitties and my little slice of paradise : )
Incroyable comme c'est magnifique!felicitation madame j'aime beaucoup 😻🌈🦋🐦👍👍👍
Merci beaucoup! ♥
U can purchase remote controlled lighting as Well for at night! 👍
That would be a cool idea : ) ♥
I’m thinking that in the Southwest, terracotta and Mexican pottery might work in our 110+ degree summers and architecture. Thank you for giving me inspiration.
Got my coffee and waiting on the kids to get ready for school and this is where I binge-watch these videos. So many great ideas! (Edit: There is a product called Acrysol. Comes in a green and white spray can. That stuff will take off the gunk left from labels on glass quite easily. Spray on, wipe off. And a little goes a long way.)
That is awesome! Thanks for the advice, I will look for that : )
@@MyLittleSliceofParadise Amazon carries it. One can will last you for years.
@@TheBriarPatch Will check it out : )
I am determined to make a birdbath now. Beautiful colors!
@@lavadaramirez3768 I know, right? I want to rush over to my nearest Good Will but I'm in the process of moving so I'd just have more to pack. So I will wait.
cute idea for up cycling the glass pieces!
gorgeous!
Thank you!! ♥
Beautiful! I've been looking for bird bath ideas. Thanks!
I love this idea! I’m going to start collecting old dishes. 😊
You should! Thank you : ) ♥
Beautiful
what a lovely unique item to add to a garden, that is what makes interest in the designing of gardens. thank you for sharing your wonder skills.
Thank you!
My stomach hurted when I saw the cat on top of the table😂
So far the cats are well-behaved around my work ; )
I've watched a lot of DIY birdbaths on CZcams and yours is definitely the most creative and beautiful. So clever the way you put those glass pieces together. I'm off to go thrift store shopping!
Thank you! And have fun shopping : )
More stunning beauties!
Thankyou for the inspiration. 🎶🐸🦋
From Australia 💕
Thank you! 😊♥
Hi from Michigan. Nice job. Thanks for sharing.
Wow. Interesting birdbaths. Love it.
Your birdbath is gorgeous. I am going to go thrifting so I can make a birdbath also. Thank you for the inspiration ❤
Have fun! : )
Very clever! I think I’ll try one !
That's great! They are so fun to make : )
Wow! That is beautiful. You inspired me to give it a try!
Love to hear it! : )
They are works of art!
Thank you!
Oh this looks absolutely beautiful!!! I love it!!
Thank you!
Beautiful great idea
Thank you!
Beautiful!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
Wish you would of showed drilling the glass..but beautiful
I LOVE this! Thanks for sharing 👍🐢
Thanks for watching! ♥
I have that same vase that you used on the bottom. Great idea!!
So cool! : )
Thank you! Would love to see yours : ) I am working on a new one right now, will have it up in a few days!
@@MyLittleSliceofParadise Well, finished the first and made two more! I also had the idea of instead of a birdbath, to make decorative totems for my garden. I made several of these as well. Only problem I had in the beginning was the E6000 taking a long time to harden and I did loose some vases and decorative spheres because it toppled over, but the solution I found was to use a little hot glue to hold everything in place until the E6000 dries.
@@briandotson8028 I learned the same, I give the glue a couple of days before I put them outside! Would love to see photos of your birdbaths & totems.
@@judithgerard9918 Thank you! : )
Hi. Why did you drill holes in the mosaic plate? It is beautiful. You have inspired me to create a bird bath to!! 🌞
Thank you! To prevent condensation between the 2 plates : )
By the way it came out so beautiful ❤
Thank you! ♥
I think I missed seeing you drill the glass plate
I didn't drill it on camera ; )
Beautifully done, love the colors.
Thank you so much!
Wow glass chick , that is beautiful and creative! I love it. Here in the PNW our Goodwill prices are sky high, still kinda fun to hunt though. I'm a new sub and happy to have found you...
Prices are higher but it's still fun to hunt for deals. I will be shopping other Thrift stores in an upcoming video ; )
That is so Beautiful and very High End looking ❤
Thank you! : )
That looks so beautiful!. years ago I took an old glass lamp base from the sixties and put it over one of my water sprayers in my front garden.
That's a great idea! : )
Beautiful. Do you sell those that you make? My mom and I are going to try and make one. Those are so pretty and the colors are great
Thank you! I ususally just give them away to friends and family or put them in the garden on the porch : )
How awesome 👍
Maybe put some solar lights inside the glasses.
That's a cool idea! ♥
Oh! I have a good hack for getting stickers off of stuff! Just use a hair dryer on it until it melts the glue then carefully peel. Where are you filming from? I love the sounds of birds, insects and frogs.
Thanks for that tip! I will try it next time. I am in Florida : )
@@MyLittleSliceofParadiseare you in North Florida? The greenery and moss trees don’t appear to be Southern Florida.
@@XjtBA Central Florida : )
Very beautiful!
Thank you very much! ♥
Can use as a plant stand or just garden decor , very beautiful, take advantage of thrift store items lots potential out there
Very true! ♥
Gorgeous!!!
Thank you! : )
Cool
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you!
You’ve inspired me to do this. I have a lot of glassware I’ve been saving for this project. Your bb is beautiful!
Thank you! Have fun making your own beautiful birdbath : )
Супер!!! Шикарная идея!!
Thank you!
Beautiful 🥰
They are very beautiful, but I was wondering, how much did it cost you to make?
I don't always keep track of the cost when I buy glassware at the thrift stores, but I always try to get the best deals. Maybe $30? Plus adhesive.
Love the idea and love the colors and the name of it. Nice view do you ever worry about the water cong u to your area .?
Thank you! I don't worry much : )
❤
Amazing 🤩🤩👍
Awesome
Thank you for mentioning the level. I have seen many videos and no one has mentioned a level. I see how it is an important part to this process. The drilling into glass scares me. Will you do a video on drilling.
Yes I found that making them level is important! The drilling isn't scary if you have the right drill bits. I will add the drilling to a future video : )
@@MyLittleSliceofParadise I would love more footage/info on drilling. I have a simple dremel and am wondering if that works or need to being out the big guns (drill), ya think?
@@riflegurlsmom You will need to use a drill with drill bits for glass & ceramic. It only cost me $8 for a set of bits on Amazon. I will add drilling to a future video : )
Very pretty and creative! I was just wondering though want this tip over in a strong wind and break the glass? I live on the east coast and we get some pretty strong storms has yours ever fallen over from wind?
Thank you! We had one storm that I prepared for by tipping the birdbaths and laying them on their sides. For the more fragile ones I am thinking of a way to brace them to a tree or post. Maybe this will be in an upcoming video : )
I can't believe you found 3 bowls the same.
I know, I got lucky! : )
Beautiful 🥰
My cats, unfortunately, would love for me to set up a bird bath trap for their hunting.
Lol! Well birds are pretty good about getting away from cats ; )
Looks like you switched from e6000 to the epoxy. Did this glue not hold up as well?
The bird feeders started coming apart in the hot Florida sun. E6000 melts in the sun. It's a learning process! It works ok for the bird baths though.
Thank you : )
Beautiful...but how tall
Beautiful!!!!!! What kind of glue do you use?
Thank you! E6000
Your bird baths are so awesome I want to try and make one I’m just wondering if you sell them how much do you sell them for because I’m thinking if I make some and I sell them I’m just wondering.
Thank you! I don't sell them. I have them in the yard and make them for other people so far ; )
How DO U TELL WHATS SOLID COLORED GLASS?
One of the easiest ways to identify a piece of glass with flashed on color is to look for scratches and wear where the clear glass is showing through.
❤ what 2as the total cost to do this please ❤
Depends on what deals I get on the glassware. Plus glue : )
Pretty but why did you need to drill holes if everything’s glued ?
I drilled holes in the bottom plate so that condensation can drip out..
Is your table leveled?
Great question! I actually moved it to another table that I knew was level : )
And where do you live? We thought maybe South Carolina or Georgia
I live in Central Florida : ) ♥
Rubbing alcohol helps get stickers off
I will try that : )
What if my house isn't level??? 🤣🤣🤣 But seriously my house is not level. Where should I do this?? Outside on the ground then use the level????
LOL, there must be a level spot somewhere! Any floor in your house should be level...
Take the stickers off!
Geez why are you yelling???
I wish
