Default Makings of a DIY bird bath
Oldest ds was asking if we could get a bird bath well being the frugal person I am, I can't justify going out and paying that much money for a bird bath.

I googled and found this: How to Make a Terra Cotta Flower Pot Bird Bath

I'm going to start watching thrift store and yard sales for some to make one.

Unless I go with this idea:

Google Image Result for http://www.burkesbackyard.com.au/img/archive/1803/birdbath_43.gif


or this one...

Google Image Result for http://www.brooklynfeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/birdbath1.jpg


and I can't find an image for it but I have a picture (I guess from a magazine) that shows s 3 "armed" branch that has a saucer setting down onto it and then that is firmly planted into the ground to keep it stable (I wonder if the person concreted it in now to keep it upright, etc.)


We already have the big saucer

I love the one that sets in the barrel! That is so my style, but they all look great! Let us know which one you decide on!

I vote on the Barrell it's a unique idea.. The Terra Cotta Pot one is neat to but sorta resembles the "Standard" bird bath KWIM?!?!

I like the barrell too but thinking of the 3 armed branch more or maybe even a stump with it setting on it.

Thanks you two! Hopefully I can find the right tree branch I want for it. I do think I'm just going to go with that one.
