Make A Garden Totem

This is a very easy, inexpensive garden project. With some used dishes (glass, ceramic, metal), you can make a garden totem that can be used as a bird bath or feeder. The little birds love something like this that's fairly close to the ground.
Pick dishes you like and make sure they can fit snugly together (some dishes are warped or curved and may not fit).
Use waterproof, clear-drying silicone
You can make a garden totem in under twenty minutes (plus drying time).

Join the pieces in pairs, allow them dry, and then join them all together to form the totem. Here I'm using books to press two freshly-joined pieces together while the sealant dries.
