Hubs has been asking for a blue gazing ball for the garden......He found this blue stand at a sale which is where this project began. Okie dokie......so what to use? I had just bought this bag of blue willow transfer ware oriental dishes at a yard sale. Sounds good to me. Have Rubber Mallet....can smash dishes!! LOL
Here are some step by steps and the finished product!! :)
safety glasses, tile nippers and adhesive
Rubber mallet and plate
Oh, so pretty whole
whole no more
half way there , holes were filled with caulk
half way there still, flip side
finished and grouted (sorry, hubs was sneaky and grouted when I didn't know)....so no pics of that step. We used white non-sanded grout.

You are a DIY queen! Absolutely brilliant idea Shelly!!
DId the plate fit around the entirety of the ball, or just the part that shows?
omg, Shelly, you are so inspiring in so many ways!!! There is always something new and cool that you've made.
