This is my first attempt at making a trough…well this is more like a bird bath “bampy style”, I´m very pleased with it concidering it was the first one I made, some crazy paving is also now drying off.

Thanks for the answers, the trough turned out OK but how the crazy paving will turn out I have no idea, it must still dry off for another week or so before I will attempt to turn it over....then I think I will make a bigger trough.

Didn't that turn out really well, I would buy that in a shop, it looks as if it's been around for years! Have you decided what you're going to plant into it?

Hi Libet, it wasn´t bad for the first one, at the moment I don´t know if I will leave it as a bird bath or plant something in it, the problem is it is fairly shallow, I will have to have a look at which plants like little soil....any ideas are welcome.

It's great. Nice to be able to have the courage to attempt something home made lol. It looks good :)

How did you mould the trough, Rogi? I've seen how-to's involving two cardboard boxes, one inside the other, and polystyrene boxes that were used to pack fish being covered inside and out.

Ah! I've just read on and found your how-to blog, that answers the question! *s*
