Three Blue Butterflies Stone Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

Three Blue Butterflies Stone Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

I've been wanting to do something with some iridescent blue tiles I've had for a while, but I couldn't think of a design that would do them justice. But, since I've come up with the Three series of designs which has Bee and Dragonfly in it, Butterfly was an obvious choice for using these tiles as wings. The rest of bird bath design has circles of light aqua blue on a stone grey background tiles. A really fresh contemporary look that would actually suit any style of garden.

Three Dragonflies Jade Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

After creating the Three Bees bird bath design, I decided to make one using a dragonfly mosaic design that I've used in the past on slate garden ornaments. I had some really nice green iridescent tiles that I wanted to use for the wings, so I created the Three Dragonfly palette around those tiles using other shades of green, including mint, and jade to tie it all together. The resulting pattern is very relaxing on the eye, like the bee design is. The muted colours, circles, and flowing design all help create the relaxing feel to the bird bath. The circles also have the look of a stained glass window too, which is also very pleasing on the eye. I really like this design. I hope you do too.

This latest bird bath design has come about through me wanting to use my bumblebee mosaic within a bird bath design. And wanting the design to have a slight fabric style to it. So the result is this Three Bee design. It's a very calming design with the colours used, and the circles, and flow of the design drawing the eye around it. It would make a great gift for anyone with a wildlife garden.

I've been wanting to do a bird bath design with a dragonfly for a while, but I've been trying to think how to do it so it didn't look like the dragonfly was under the water. Then it came to me that you get really good reflections on still water. So this design represents a dragonfly that has landed on some rushes next to a still pool and the scene is being reflected onto the surface. 

The dragonfly has jade iridescent tiles for the wings, so in some light angles it slightly blends into it's surroundings, which a real dragonfly would do. But when the light angle catches the iridescence the wings shine with metallic gold and magenta.

Slate Shades Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

This Slate Shades bird bath design came about after I was playing with tiles to come up with a new colour palette. I knew I wanted to do a simple linear design, and these tile colours reminded me of slate colours, so the idea was that it would be as if the bird bath was made with slices of different colours of slate. To add interest to the design there is a line of iridescent tiles that have purple and blue metallic colours that match the design. A nice simple, modern pattern that would suit any style of garden.

A new design added to my website today. This Aqua & Apple Green Heart is a lovely, simple design, which uses quite muted colours, but it has a clean contemporary look that is very effective, and would suit any style garden. If you love your garden birds, this could be the bird bath for you.

It's been a very busy July, and I've been selling out of a lot of designs without a chance to make more up. But, at the moment I'm writing this blog post, both of the water lily pond colourways - Blue & White / Jade & Pink - are both back in stock. For now. So if you've got your eye on one....... : )
