Mediterranean Pool and Heather Tartan Mosaic Bird Baths

Mediterranean Pool Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

Two new bird baths added to my website shop and to my Etsy shop (for international buyers) both made just using straight lines. The first one, Mediterranean Pool, has a design that was inspired by pools, and the tiles and colours of the Med, with it's blues, turquoises, and sea greens.













Heather Tartan Mosaic Garden Bird Bath


The other mosaic design, Heather Tartan, has a tartan pattern and uses purples, greens, and sky and grey blues which remind me of heather moorland. 

So the bird baths use the same method of making the mosaics, but the colours and pattern give them totally different looks. Both are great for adding colour to the garden, and both can be used as bird baths by your garden birds, and also as water dishes by other wildlife, including hedgehogs. They make great gifts for wildlife and garden lovers too.

The Pool Mosaic Garden Bird Bath



The Pool Mosaic Garden Bird Bath


A fun new mosaic bird bath design that's called The Pool and is a mini swimming pool complete with 'paved' edge for the birds to have a splash around in.

Water Lily and Mini Bee Garden Mosaic Spheres

Water Lily Mosaic Garden Ball

I made my first garden sphere ever recently and straight away I had the urge to make another one in a different design, then the butterflies are joined by bees, on large and on mini balls too. It's gone sphere mad round here.

The Water Lily Pond Ball has two goldfish, two dragonflies with iridescent wings, and white water lily flowers all on a jade green background. It would look really great next to a pond. Or it would be great if you can't have a pond in your garden as a replacement.







Bees and Butterflies on Mosaic Garden Spheres


A couple of designs I have made for customers are variations of the original butterfly ball with bees added too.
















Mini Bee Mosaic Garden Spheres


And these are the mini balls with a single bumblebee on which are very cute, and great as plant markers or to use in a container as decoration.

If you've seen anything you like, you can always message me on Facebook and I'll see if I can make what you're after.

Pink Roses Hanging Heart Garden Decoration

Pink Roses Hanging Heart Garden Decoration
The first new design of 2015 from me, the Pink Roses Hanging Heart Garden Decoration. I had designed the rose and used it in a bird bath a few months ago, and I fancied using it to create a fabric look on a hanging heart. I used some very delicate iridescent and plain pastel pink tiles for the roses, and used fresh greens for the leaves to give a nice bright background. It's worked really well with the black grout popping the colours out. So 2015 has started well with this design, which I like so much I am going to use it in a bird bath, and I'm going to try more colourways of it too. You can either follow me on Facebook to see these new designs take shape and find out when they get listed on my website, or you can follow this blog.

Moroccan Garden Mosaic Bird Bath

Moroccan Garden Mosaic Bird Bath


Inspired by the mosaic colours of a Moroccan courtyard pool, this Moroccan Garden Bird Bath uses deep blues, greens and soft aquas to create a geometric design. It would be great to add colour in the garden and would look fab with large leaved plants to create an exotic atmosphere in the smallest space.

Mediterranean Mosaic Garden Bird Bath

Mediterranean Mosaic Garden Bird Bath


The first design in a series of new ones to be added to my website and shops in the next few weeks. This one has a geometric pattern made using shades of blue, turquoise and green giving the design a Mediterranean feel. The grey grout used brings the colours together and gives a lovely aged effect too. It's a perfect garden decoration, as well as being useful for the birds and other wildlife too.
