It's really beautiful, Kathy. What is the topper? I'm partial to globes. :) ~JoAnn

ooooooooohhhhhhhh -- It's awesome ! Yes - tell us what the topper is . Glass balls cost an arm & a leg ... got any good places to try ?

I love it!!!!!! I know it looks stunning there in your garden.

There's only one word to describe this...BEAUTIFUL. The globe on top really sets it off. Great creation!

The topper is a hand blown sphere I found at a thrift store, I think for about $2. I've had it for a couple of years, just waiting for the rest of the pieces to come along! It's not perfectly round, the end I glued to the candle holder is kind of pointy.

That is an especially pretty one!!! I wondered what these totems were about. Now I know.

oooh, la, la!! VERY pretty! Love the amber color and the shapes are wonderful!! I've got to try one of those!

Beautiful color & shapes love all the amber together! The white towards bottom really looks great in the flower bed! Jan

AWESOME ! The amber glass is so beautiful in the garden.

hugs, Karen

Ooooooooooooo, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I love it! Very pretty shape and colors. I love the amber. Just gorgeous!

Beautiful. Love the glass you used.

Boy that's a really beautiful one...

That turned out fantastic. Yes, sometimes we do spend $$$ on our projects. But, if your like me, you won't be happy till you get the right combination.

Love it on the post and all pieces are a perfect match for each other.

That is comfrey growing below it. My chickens love to eat it, and it makes a great medicinal wash or salve.

Bravo!! nicely done!

Your amber totem is beautiful!
I made an amber one about 6 years ago but
it doesn't hold a candle to yours!

I just had to share this pic I took today, with the late afternoon sun shining through my Amber Totem. I'm really lovin' this one!

How have I missed this? Absolutely, positively BEAUTIFUL! Lovely glass, lovely composition! TFS

Tasy,

What a wonderful totem! Love the colors. Don't they just bling in the light like that? If I remember right isn't that a stairway spindle used for the post? I don't know how much you spent on all that glass. I've guesstimated what it would cost me if I found the same exact pieces at my local thrift stores and I come in about $17-18 (minus the spindle). If I sold something like that it would be in and $30-35 range. It is a OOAK (one of a kind).
Thank for sharing your garden bling!
Love, Jules

I love this! It is sooooo pretty!!!

I have a large amber glass globe from the 60's that I want to do something in the yard with. Just not sure what. Yours is an excellent idea!

WOW! That is really pretty. What is it sitting on? The white makes it pop! TFS.

Oh....Oh beautiful. The amber glass in this one is lovely. Do like that you use the posts to set them higher in the garden.

Kat

WOW, tasymo...I missed this post, too! Glad it got bumped up...very, very BEAUTIFUL...luv the pic of the light coming thru the amber globe & your flowers are gorgeous in the setting! TFS! Jeanne S.

Its stunning in the sunlight! I'm wondering if the orb on top might be either an old fisherman's float for the nets (yes they used blown glass before styrofoam was invented) OR a replica produced for tourists. When I was a young girl I bought a little blue one at a tourist shop in Maine at the ocean. They also had big ones and I think these replicas came in green and amber and blue. I have a couple of "real" ones in my garden - not half so pretty but definitely interesting. I guess you can still find them on the beach as the Japanese used them until recently. The little point and not perfect shape you mention made me think of them.
