Just wanted to share the garden sparklers that I'm making. I've been making them for friends and for a local nursery. They are great hanging outside where they get some morning or evening sun and can create the reflective lights that bounce around your garden. Each is about 20" long.

I like those, Lynne. Good balance. Thumbs up Your photo reminded me that I picked up a couple of similars at a craft fair last summer—a plainer design than yours (no rings or bottom prism)—and somehow they ended up indoors. At some point since then (I now remember) I bought mirrored beads (already have other beads) to make some for myself and gifts, and forgot all about them. Now I wonder where I put those? Thinking So thanks for the reminder that a) I have some I should put in the garden and b) would like to make more. I'm not so sure I'm grateful for being reminded that I might a) have too many projects underway and b) might be getting just a tad forgetful! Rolling on the floor laughing

It looks like you put 2 pieces of mirror together on the string? I have tons of mirroring and beads. I need to get moving and make some. They look great!
