Homes Designs: haute d.i.y.projects: garden mosaic balls

I picked up a great little book at the thrift store the other day about decorating your garden. Amongst the many ideas inside the book was an idea for creating mosaic balls from old bowling balls! I love the reuse for old bowling balls although other sites like DIY Network and HGTV call for rubber balls. Basically you need grout, gloves, broken china, a ceramics cutter & a bowling ball. The sites above have detailed instructions. Aside from mosaic balls, I love bird baths, statuaries, fountains, mirrors, arches etc. for garden decoration. A nicely decorated garden makes the outside feel like another room to hang out in. Get to work mosaicing!
