My unique glass art flowers are created using a combination of recycled and repurposed glassware that I have found at estate sales, thrift stores and auctions. They are made to be displayed indoors on a suitable plate stand or wall hanger { which can be purchased at your local craft store for a few dollars}. Or I prefer to display them outdoors where they can be enjoyed in your garden. Outdoors you can place them on a stake. I prefer a 4 foot painted rebar stake with at least 8-12 inches pushed into the ground for stability. Or you can use a copper or bamboo if you prefer all of which can be purchased at your local hardware store. My flowers are easy care no watering or weeding required. They may be hand washed and towel dried. Your beautiful creation is made to be enjoyed outdoors in almost all weather. However I do recommend bringing it indoors if a hail storm or tornado may be stopping by. As my flowers are made from repurposed and vintage glass they may have slight imperfections which only add to the character of the piece. This smoky yard art flower is 10 inches in diameter. It is composed of a large smoky serving bowl, a small lattice white with gold trim plate, a clear glass candle holder and a rose small vase as the center. The flower is put together with an outdoor silicone adhesive and had a small bottle on the back to place on the stem you select. It will accommodate up to a 3/4″ stem. I use rebar, however you can use a copper pipe or even a straight piece of bamboo.
