Make Your Own Garden Art Flowers

There are so many ways to make decorative garden art flowers. I am a flower fanatic and I’m gradually working my way through my very long list of favourites to make a garden art version of each one.

Keep your eyes open for materials in thrift shops and on the curb on trash collection day.

Here’s the supplies I watch for:

Car hubcaps
Old plates and dishes
Kitchen utensils
Wire baskets
Serving trays
Drawer pulls
Small vases
Salt and pepper shakers

Metal sheeting
Softballs
Nails
Stove elements / heating coils
Cake pans
Metal pipes
Wood posts

My favourite adhesive for outdoor projects is GE Silicone II. You can see it here on Amazon.com and read more about how it works here.

There are free tutorials for all the projects shown here.
