Gotta love it! The other rustic items and this sphere make a nice scene. Always great to finish a project, good job all around (no pun intended) Blessings in the New Year, Kim :)

And to think that I got rid of the 4 whiskey barrels that the previous owner left in the yard. Had I only known. . .

Love this Jeanne! Looks great in your garden!

9 bands--that is great!
The one I made several years ago only had 4.
I need to re-paint mine....each band was a differnt color.

I don't know who's pic this is ...but this was my inspiration that I had saved in 'future projects' album:

Thanks, Kirk...it was Cindee's 'sphere' ... I see she just made another one out of 'strapping' ...cool! And also she was the inspiration for my 'tipsy buckets' a couple yrs ago(except I put my Dad's old watering can on top)...thanks for posting her link, too! I was her Secret Santa a few yrs back...she has such cool gardens! Jeanne S.

Aug 2011 (oh, I miss summer already!) No snow here yet tho as you could see in 'sphere' pics.

Love your sphere. Rustic is soooooo for me!

Gorgeous! Thanks for posting, I now have to add this to my project list since I just got some more and keep forgetting about them(cuz I have to "stash" them out of hubby's sight!) I am hoping I have enough to make another one for myself and one for my BFF. Here is where I put my last one...but now I wish I had added more bands...Plus I had added rebar to attach it to the 4x4 post it sits on.
