My Mini Sunflowers

[smitty0312]

After making the 2ft sunflowers, someone asked for a smaller version, these are just 101/2" in diameter, constructed the same as the 2ft ones except I had to plane down a board to 3/8" to cut out the brown centers otherwise it would of looked too chunky.......green leaves are 1/4" luan......spray can paint for all...... I think they brighten my yard up some..... comments always welcome. Thank You

Those like great on the railing.

They certainly do look nice.

I like them in both sizes. Have you considered a stand-alone model with a slightly curved stem? Maybe something out of cedar or redwood that could be jammed into the ground.

Those came out great Dan.  Thanks for sharing them with us.

They look just as bright and cheerful as the larger ones.  Great work Dan.
