DIY Glass Mushroom Garden Decor


Forget spending money on those expensive garden statues and decor.
Create beautiful items yourself with things you already have around the house.
Imagine the joy you will feel walking through your garden.., and there blooms a mushroom made from Aunt Thelma's vase and Grandma's cookie jar (that you accidentally broke the top to) among your flowers!
All you will need is a glass or ceramic vase
a medium to large sized bowl (or in my case, a cookie jar) 
that flares out at the top (shorter than the vase)
E6000 glue
Stack the dishes on top of each other (my vase looked best "upside down")
 and notice where the two touch...
Squeeze a generous amount of E6000 glue around that edge of the vase.
 
Center the bowl "upside down" on top.
Let dry 24 hours before touching or moving.

That's it!
Now you have your own decorative mushroom decor in your garden.
Pat yourself on the back...and Keep Calm and Kerri On!
