    I like yellow orange and red.... like the beautiful sun :) ooohhhh or a flower, you could make an awesome giant flower! Paint your pole green... :) and in the center if its big enough you could put a hanging flower basket. I could probably kill you with ideas all day... haha Sorry....

    Gorgeous, I wish I had a place to put that then you would have to be on guard against 'visitors' to your garden. 8)

    I can see it in a light gold as the sun...or maybe silver as a star.

    WOW!! I love it and would have even put it on my back to get it home. I can see it with yellows, oranges and reds too - like a glowing sun in the garden all year round. :-D

    Wow Donna now that was a neat find. I think the yellow, red, orange would be a neat combo. It reminds me of an abstract looking sun. I love it. I would hang it on the back side of my house. I have the perfect wall space there. :stew1:
