Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Make A Gazing Ball Convert an old bowling ball into a gazing ball. Using glue (such as No More Nails, Crafter's Goop, Silicone II) cover the bowling ball with flat sided gems (purchased at craft stores or dollar stores). When covered in gems, grout the whole ball and let dry. Be sure to use a waterproof grout so the gazing ball can be placed outside. You will probably have to remove some of the grout that has stuck to the gems on the ball. Place in garden and enjoy. All garden ornaments are taken inside over the winter. Garden folklore A gazing ball will ward off witches from your garden. During the 17th Century in England, gazing balls were used to protect plants from the wicked witches who would come to steal them. The gazing balls attracted witches, but once the witches saw their ugly reflections, they fled the garden and the plants were safe. <WINK> Goddess Bless!
