Thanks! I sealed it today (and the bowling ball, too) and I'm really happy with it. I feel a bit guilty that I blatantly copied someone else's design, but now I feel like I know enough to design my own now. I want to make another bird bath, but I need to figure out a sturdy pedestal for them. I want them to be fairly low (maybe 12-18"). Maybe a 10-12 inch azalea pot? (covered with mosaic, of course!) Any ideas?
