Your rose trellis is really lovely and looks so much sturdier than the cane ones I have. The bottle trees would be very attractive 'decorated' with sifferent colours and shapes of bottles. I hope you'll post more photographs of your work soon.
WELCOME to our forums Grandaddy.

Welcome to the stew from east Texas. Love your work, especially the bottle trees. Looking forward to seeing more of your work. What in Tennessee do you live. I love that state. Lived in Clarksville a year and it was so beautiful. Definetly the 'greenest state' in the land of the free!

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I am in Greenbrier, Tn. That's about fifteen miles north of Nashville. I enjoy building things. I go to bed thinking of what I can build next. I am working on a fountain made with wine bottles and copper.

Welcome, GrandaddyDayCare, from the mid-Norway coast. I like the look of your creations, and am waiting for your fountain. Hop in and make yourself at home.

A warm welcome to you Grandaddydaycare.
You have some interesting looking projects. You seem to be a stewbie already. I cannot wait to see your creations.

Welcome GrandaddyDayCare, I love your work! I love making 'stuff' too, which is how I found GardenStew. I'm planning to build a wishing well out the front and googled wishing well for some ideas, next thing I knew, I'd become a Stewbie! (And no progress thus far on the wishing well ) Look forward to your future projects.

Thanks Ophelia, I have been out today buying material for a fountain I am building. I am like a kid at Christmas, and can't wait to get it built. I also feel fortunate to have found a new group of friends who share the same interest as myself.
