Oh and rebar is threaded, so you can "screw" it into a slightly too small hole for a tight fit. Don't want it falling off!

Ooh I’ve never heard of rebar, but yes that would work nicely, there’s a sort of socket at the bottom to stick something into, great suggestion :)

Oh that is lovely.

DrP as you do outdoor pottery any advice on sealing/fixing outdoor items. I bought this heart bird bath from ETSY, it came and was wet. Dried out in the garage then moved it outside. Next day it was cracked. Got in touch they sent me a new one. They said it was fine for outdoor use in winter and thought it was damaged in transit.

It was dry but I left it indoors for a week anyway took it outside and lo and behold it cracked again similar place. I don’t want a 3rd on top of which they’re a small business the postage is a fortune alone. So I said I’d try to fix it but what with I’ve not researched yet.

I wore my new leggings today (with a T shirt over the top for the outdoor run, it’s not crop top weather!)

gg: I’m not sure what it’s made of but I suppose we did have a super cold spell. You could try using bathroom sealant to fix any leaks. I use a special type of clay for outdoor pieces, but that doesn’t look like clay. I think you were just unlucky to have a very cold snap combined with very wet weather

Those are awesome, CC2!

If they have pockets then I must make them mine.

Doesn't carrying you phone in a pocket make your shorts or leggings fall down?

About This Thread

starblackheartstar The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring starblackheartstar

Lent has a special and specific meaning to Christians but has become an secular season of denial and hair shirting that serves no positve purpose. No chocolate, no booze, no -er - other stuff.

Why not treat the build up to Easter - as a chance to celebrate and embrace NEW THINGS - that's what spring is about after all.

The first few pages of the thread give more ideas.
