Pat, I love those lights.. containers... Wow.. I wish I have a nice lawn and garden to show off with those lights.. They would make a moon light garden look pretty on those days when the moon isn't around.
I love this windchime made from a wine bottle.. though I would add a little more jaz to it and string it differently .. i love the idea..

Pat, I love it, it looks magical!
This windchime made from a wine bottle looks very pretty but how to cut glass? I'd like to try to make a decoration like this but I think it's too difficult.

 

[maddie]

Yeah you need specialized tools for cutting glass. I saw some very pretty garden ornaments made from broken crockery.. this also needs cutting equipment.. I am sure the sound of these wind chimes is really worth the effort.

Somehow it reminds me of mosaics made from broken china. I think they look really pretty sometimes. Just look at these pictures, everything is covered with mosaics:

In my opinion it's a little too much but still, I believe that a mosaic can make a nice decoration

LOL that looks overwhelming! It is a lot of work.

Here is something I found..an interesting idea ..

Illuminated pots..

These illuminated pots look really nice but a little too modern for me.
Here is a lovely table, I don't think it's too hard to make something like this, you just need a few branches and a hammer:

Agreed it is modern.. but considering I have mostly indoor plants these will serve not only as illumination but also as grw light in dark corners of the home.
I do like that rustic table Would be lovely to have one like that provided you had that kind of space.
How about some pretty compost bins

 

[claudine]

These compost bins are adorable, they both look so elegant, lol

Here is a nice decoration made from colorful rain boots:

Here is a living wreath that I love.. this is easy to maintain and looks great.. I also like the ivy wreath.

Maddie, it looks beautiful

I found a cheerful decoration made from flowerpots, I think it's cute:

Claudine those looks so cute and cheerful.. the woolen hat and ears wont allow any plants to be put in them though.. they sure will add color and life to any garden. Simple and easy to make though.

Here are a bunch of roses made with maple leaves...
This is the link to the site on how to make these...

As you know, I'm obsessed with roses so I find this decoration really interesting, thank you for sharing

I love these pinwheels, they look like flowers and they're easy to make:

 

[maddie]

And they do cause a flutter in the breeze.. I used to have these made from soda cans.. i loved the noise they made
I love this simple but neat wall decoration..

Maybe my garden wall needs something like this.. but I was thinking more in terms of using the space to have more plants with some nice wooden slats fixed to the wall.
Space is really precious to me at this juncture.

This wall decoration is really nice, I like dragonflies

Here is something lovely, a simple decoration made from empty bottles:

I think it will look as good outdoors as it does indoors
