mirror and bowling balls

i spent a lot of time on sunday breaking mirrors and hot glueing them to bowling balls~LOL~this is what they look like before adding the grout~which i find the hardest part~ i like the way they look without the grout too~ the small green and white one in the bottom right hand corner has a big chip out of the bottom and sits perfectly~i have been using that as a door stop~i did cover three of them yesterday and will clean them up today before i start on the remaining ones~ooooh there is a reason they call it HOT glue!!~when they are out sitting in a garden and the light catches the mirror it's so prettty:)
eventually i want to try colored mirrors but since i get these for free no need to bother for now:)
as with all the pic's i post if you double click the pic is better:)

Tammy these are gorgeous. Where do you get all the bowling balls???? From the bowling ball pixie??? haha
I never heard of such a thing!
Weren't you scared of the bad luck by breaking the mirror or is that only if you break a mirror accidentally????? Who cares eh? The beauty of them in the garden is definitely good luck
((((hugs))))
