Garden Gazing Ball Stand

Here is another way to recycle bottles and jars and create a lovely gazing ball stand for your yard or garden.


Materials you will need:

Armour Jar and bottle cutter (available at www. Marlenewatson.com)

Gazing ball. Available at craft stores and garden nurseries.

Tall wine bottle and 2 jars such as mayonnaise
Metal candle base
Silver metallic spray paint or any paint of your choice and color
Quick-Cure 5-minute Epoxy

Instructions:

1. Cut top off of mayonnaise jars just below the rounded top.

2. Glue one cut jar onto metal base. Glue wine bottle on top of jar. At top of wine bottle glue on second jar.

3. Spray entire stand with metallic or other paint/s.

4. Set gazing ball on top.

Note: to make stand heavier, fill wine bottle with sand before gluing pieces together.

If desired you can decorate the wine bottle. I have used a stencil on this one and applied decorating paste from Deco Art enterprises.

You can make the stand as tall as desired by gluing more cut jars together.
