Verdant Ripple Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

Verdant Ripple Mosaic Bird Bath


I recently realised that I've had one glaring colour missing from my shops. I didn't have anything green. And what better colour to have in the garden, if you want something subtle and muted. Or if you want to add a bit of green to somewhere where like a patio, deck area. 








Verdant Ripple Mosaic Bird Bath


So I have been adding more green designs lately, and one of the green bird baths flew out of the door, so that was probably a good clue that green is very popular. With this in mind, I've now added a green colour version to the popular Ripple Bird Bath range. Lots of shades of green combining to make a lovely, lush design.

Folksy Handmade - Blue Lagoon

Inspired by the colours in my new Laguna Mini Bird Bath, which reminded me of the colours you'd see in a lagoon (the clue's in the name), I had a nosey round for some other watery palettes, and came up with this fab little lot, which match my little bird bath perfectly, and some even have a rippling pattern too.

The Highlands In Your Garden




This is the latest version of my Ripple Bird Bath design. This one is inspired by the colours of heather moorland under a brooding sky. I've used purples, greens, and grey blues in this palette. The stones are Scottish pebbles and are stacked like a cairn, and there is a ripple of iridescent tiles next to them, and a ripple of clear heather glass to add depth and interest to the design.
