| I've got more to take photo's of, but these are the belated Mother's Day gifts.
My Mother-In-Law loves anything with hearts. I found these at GW and made the clay center that say's MOM
This is the other one I will send her. I love the colors together
I found this cool beaded lightshade and it looks beautiful on these clear plates
And the last is just pretty I think
I painted the conduits green and bought that thick green covered clothes line to use as leaves. I'm going to do a craft show in November so I'll be making lots more. |

| Good job! They look great...the last one even reminds me of an ice cream Sundae! Love the heart shaped plate! |

| Your plate flowers look great! I'm having trouble getting my pvc elbow to stayed glued to glass on the back so I can attach pvc pipe. (Bond 527 didn't work). What glue did you use? I am trying Lexel but it takes 30 days to cure. What did you use on the back to attach to conduit? |

| Thanks. I used the flatened spoon trick. I used that clear glass/window silicone that everyone posts about. |

| Thank you! I've been reading here about GE II, but I wasn't sure. Thanks again! |

| They are lovely I would like to see one with leaves too. Good luck with your show. Besure to keep us posted. Kim, fyi: The pvc pipes that I attached the garden signs that I made for a local shelter held up pretty well except where they got snowplowed. I used automotive goop on them. I posted the tutorial from my blog below. Scroll down through part 2 to part 1 where I talk about attaching the pipe fittings. I also use automotive goop for the spoons when I make plate flowers, for glass to glassI use ge silicone ii clear. Kathy |

| Thanks everyone. Those butterflies are plastic that came on picks at Michaels. Something like 8 for $1. |
