Easy Bird Bath

I have had a big terra cotta pot sitting in my yard for awhile now, so I thought I would take THE NEW GREEN's blog advice and turn it into a bird bath! So easy and so much less expensive, as they can cost a ton! You can even buy great Terra cotta paints at craft stores if you want to freshen up that pot!

Top 5's ART

Wow, this one was tough. I have to say that of all the amazing art I have been exposed to in the last year, UK's Abigail Brown has given me the most inspiration from her pieces. As myself, she is a crafter as well as an artist, and with that makes it such a pleasure to see her two gifts combined. Her fabric creatures are my favorite!
