I did play in the concrete but didn't do the leaf, I decided to do the bird bath that was in one of the gardening magazine and I think they had the direction here on DG also. It is the one where you put a pumpkin in the center of the concrete to make the bird bath hole....hope it works and I didn't push the pumpking too far down. 60 lbs of concrete sure is heavy but I got it done out on the walk. It is so windy I can't keep the plastic taped like they said. I decided to stick some leaves on the top of the plain concrete for some decorations, hope it isn't too much. Think the book said I could remove the pumpkin (gourd) tomorrow. If it comes out 1/2 way decent I may try another since we are suppose to have good weather for awhile. I am worried about the depth of the pumpkin tho, looking at the picture it maybe to shallow but most birds don't like deep or butterflies....listen to me trying to convience myself....rofl. Figured I had better do the pumpkin before it rotted. Maybe leaf tomorrow or both. LOL
