These handmade glass sculptures are very popular in this area. There are so many ways to make flowers, teacup/saucer bird feeders, and totems. I think that this one is lovely. The site Flea Market Gardening has many ideas. They say to use exterior window silicone to glue the parts together...and another secret for this project is to start the base with a heavy glass round microwave tray on the bottom. Ah...that answers a question of mine, I wondered how to keep one from falling over and breaking. I think that the best source is of course the thrift store.
