Funky Garden Sculpture

Let's call him Arthur. So cute he has a personality all his own! This very cool and funky old bird sculpture for the garden was made from an old spade and various metal tool parts then painted in bright colors. I picked him up at a yard sale and he has all the excellent age, rust and wear that you need to add to your garden your porch, by your back door - wherever! Arthur measures 16 inches high and has great weathered patina from hanging outside over the many years!

WHAT A FIND!! YA GOTTA HAVE HIM!

you can bid on Arthur here if you'd like

He's JUST COOL!

WITHOUT DOORS

We couldn't enter

do we want to?

Nor could we leave

its pretty here...lets not...

Nor could we keep things out

awww...he's cute...lets not keep him out

Without doors we couldn't keep

little girls like calla from raiding the fridge
(however these doors don't seem to keep her out)




the grandkids away from messes
(aven & calla, my young artists at work)

they're having so much fun sooooo...whatever! Get into the paint closet!

Doors hide clutter

although these mugs are cool - why would you want to hide them?


Doors keep us safe
how easy would it be to pick this lock?

When I was young no one locked their doors - city or country. Life was safer back then of course.

But everyone did have doors.


except Josh & Sasha - still without doors ;)
