garden backdrop
« on: May 12, 2009, 18:57:48 »
I know some of you like to a sneak preview into some of our show gardens, This is the backdrop for a garden that will be built at Hampton court this year.
I made it from old ceramic tiles, mirrors and broken roof slates, you could say it is recycled garden art. The circular spaces will be filled by some stained glass windows featuring flowers.  Also it will be donated to some worthy cause after the show. We also have a garden pavilion that cost a few thousand that is being used at The NEC which will be raffled for Age Concern, so don't let the Charity envelopes remark make you think I don't care.

Oh I could find a home for that......right up my street! 8) 8) Fab as usual Ace.

Is the garden pavilion in the same style? I'm going to the NEC this year so will be able to have a good look at it.... ;D

You are a real craftsman Ace, We all know the real you in spite of your sometimes non chalant remarks. Tone and I will look forward to seeing the finished exibit later in the year. Keep up the good work for Age Concern mate we really need folks like you.

The pavilion is for a completely different garden and we are not allowed to 'play with it'.
