    ME TOO !!!!!!!! I love the whole area in fact, so delightful. That birdbath is wider than most I've seen, really like it a lot. Is it stone or resin?

    oh thanks everyone and thank you all for your ideas!! Yes the bird bath is resin, easy to clean and move around when the mood strikes me. Was a clearance item at my local garden center, couldn't pass it up.

    Craftylady,

    Not really new here, I've posted a few times. Mostly just a troll. I did get the totem idea here!! I am pretty active on the Bluebird and Bird Watching Forum's. I also like some of the gardening forums. Isn't spring grand???

    Pam

    p.s. thanks all for your kind comments!!

    deanie,

    Basically most people use GE Silicone II. You can get it at a home suppy store.

    Here's someone else's partial post "If you are making a free standing totem, a large plate or bowl on the bottom helps to stabilize it, especially if you cover the plate with mulch or dirt. I quess the height is your own personal preference, you will know when it looks right. I have left mine out overwinter, but I live in the deep South and we rarely have hard freezes. Make sure all of your pieces are placed to where they do not hold water, unless of course you are making a bird bath. In other words if you use a saucer place it upside down."

    Have fun!! You can also do a search on this forum and find lots of instructions and ideas!!!
