This first totem I've made for my sis for her b'day. I have duplicates of all but the topper so plan to make one for me as well. The topper's an ugly li'l thing I wouldn't have in my house, but yunno it looks pretty darned good on top! IMHO.

And here's another I made last year, in situ. (Don't think I've shown this one before, since this is the first the garden's looked worth anything since last fall.)

Love them both, but the blue one is my favorite, you did a great job. Now I'll have to be on the lookout for materials to make one. Thank You for sharing.

I hadn't really been too interested in making a totem but after seeing the blue one I just might have to keep my eyes peeled for items to make one. Very pretty!

Great totems! Now I know what to do with those odd little dodads I'm tired of. The blue is so pretty and hard to find that color of glass.

And I love your Caladiums! Ever heard of Lake Placid, Fl.? It's about 15 miles from me and it's known as the Caladium Capitol of the world. Certain times of the year, there are fields of acres and acres of all varieties planted. It's the most amazing site to see! Breathtaking, and beautiful!
TFS your neat totems!

Both of those are so different and beautiful, each in it's own way. I have got to make some!

Very nice job! I love the ceramic as well as the blue. Not easy to find nice items like that in YS's. Great gift for your Sis. IKWYM about the kitchey figurines, totems are the perfect place for them!
