    Susie... that has to look great with all the other blue around your home.
    I recently read why gazing balls are used in gardens. Maybe the rest of you knew this already... but I didn't.
    They are used to chase off evil spirits/witches from your garden. When they sneak in and see their own ugly reflections (times a hundred)... they get scared and run away.

    SusieQ07, That's a very nice one. I have about 12 of them waiting for the gardens to be created. :D Silly me, always doing things backwards.
