Netta and Judy made this garden fancy from finds at charitable organizations and secondhand stores. It’s dinner-plate wide and about 20 inches high. Each piece is in scale with the other, making it stable. The complementary colors of orange and brown, with a mushroom motif, would provide a refreshing pop of color in a woodland garden.
For this example, Netta and Judy used the following:
• Bread plate
• Pitcher
• Mushroom-motif canister
• Candleholder
• Dinner plate
• Level
• Silicone glue (salant)
• Sandpaper block
• Cleaning supplies to remove dirt or glue from price stickers.
Tip:
Firing ceramic often leaves a rough edge at the bottom of the piece. Lightly sand this area to allow for better adhesion between pieces.
Tip: Carefully center each piece before stacking. If a piece is off-center, quickly remove it, clean off the glue, and try again.
