Someone recently posted a DIY concrete birdbath on my fb wall, so Jeff and I decided to try it before our elephant ear leaves shrivel away. It's a super easy project, you just need to have all your supplies ready ahead of time. All told, I think it took us less than an hour.
Probably on Wednesday, they will be cured enough to pick out the leaf and see how they look.
This is where I plan on putting the big bird bath. It's a big sandy area where the sparrows love to splash in the dirt. But ivy has taken to digging there and it just gets bigger and bigger. So I filled it with gravel and put some bigger polished rocks on top. I just want to lay the bath right on top and let the birds play there.
