Garden Bling Ball

[primsong]

For those who were wondering, here's one of the other repurposed bowling balls I'm using as garden art - this is the "bling ball" that used up a box of old 80s costume jewelry I had underfoot.  Anything small and weatherproof you have a lot of would work, I was thinking I might do one with buttons as well.

That would be fun as a steampunk project, I bet.

That is so neat. Your pictures are really inspiring me to do my own.

It would be grand if you had a colletion of old style keys, broken clock innards and such. :-)

It was a picture of someone else's that got me going - spread the love! I was looking for something like a gazing ball that wouldn't break, and a bowling ball is pretty darn unbreakable, heh. I may experiment with painting them a bit as well, the bling ball might benefit from some glitzy paint here and there, it's so artistically tacky, lol...

Thank you! Finally, a use of sorts for old costume jewelry, broken necklaces and mismatched earrings! ^_^
