The bird bath did not fare well over the winter and the cracks in the pottery caused by freezing weather were too numerous to repair . I took a slightly smaller ( than the bird bath ) resin basin and placed it inside the bird bath so it could still hold water for the birds. Then I planted primroses all around in basin.
Cheerful, don't you think ?
Speaking of cheerful , how about my frizzled hen ? She's fluffy AND cheerful.

I've lost a couple of nice cement bunnies to the ravages of winter - after a few years they just crumbled away. At least you could repurpose the birdbath and I like the primroses surrounding the dish of water for the birds.
Bird baths make lovely planted containers on a pedestal and also a good place for a fairy garden.
So pretty! I bet the birds will enjoy the way you fancied up their bath! :) I love the picture of the hen too.
That is such a great idea! Your hen is gorgeous! Enjoy your time outdoors!
Nice birdbath makeover! That frizzled hen is amazing!
What a great idea for the bird bath!
Oh your adorable white frizzle. I had a tiny black bantam frizzle years ago, in my flock. She only lived 5 years bless her, but she left a lasting place in my heart. I have 4 very old bantams, who do not lay many eggs, but are very much treasured and everyone who visits falls in love with them when the pop out of a flower bed !
Love it. Soooo adorable. And the hen is a dazzler! Susan
Yes it looks wonderful and so Springlike. How creative you are Kathy and the hen is gorgeous.
Great idea for the birdbath - and that chicken is just too cute.
That is a marvelous idea and so pretty :)
Very pretty birdbath and hen, Kathy! I loved your comment you left me about eventually the spark returns. Yes, that's it! Have a glorious week, pretty lady! Bess
Kathy,
I love what you did with the bird bath! So pretty, I might just do that with my bird bath even though it isn't broken;-) and that frizzled hen is too cute!
