My Big Leaf Casting Portland Cement Bird Bath 

Oh Helen, the joy you must feel knowing that you have raised families of birds in your yard. And you should be so proud of yourself for being so independent and getting out and attempting what ever sparks your creative mind. I adore you.

Of all the projects you've done .... this is one of my favorites .... thanks for sharing.

Dear Helen: I just found you on RU-vid and I am enjoying you so much. Besides your talent and artistry, you are such a loving spirit, forgiving your limitations AND laughing at them too. I am amazed at your curiosity and zeal for doing something new and different. In your world, there are no mistakes, only fun and learning. You are also an inventor and scientist because you always ask why, and then you try what you think will work, adapting materials as needed. You have brightened my life and I look forward to my own experiments and to viewing more of yours. Forgive the comparison, but Grandma Moses became famous starting around the age of 78. She had and "itch" too. Written with so much new joy.

Miss Helen....you are not alone...you leave surrounded by Angels ma’am....I hope for the longest time ever...Peace and Love...the birds will never leave by yourself....you are their momma....

Wow!!! I love it very nice birds are happy bathing if it's ready. You have a wonderful heart. A blessed lady full of energy in your ages You are blessed by our God. Beautiful birds in your garden.Thanks Lady Helen. God loves you and take care of you.

Hi Helen! I came across your channel by accident today ~ Memorial Day 2018 and I'm quite fascinated! What a wonderful lady you are! Although I'm disabled and limited in what I can do, it's still a pleasure watching & listening to you as you work. I used to love nothing more than being out in my yard with my hands in the dirt, listening to all the birds around me. I kept bird houses, feeders & bird baths all around. I had many roses, hydrangeas and perennials that I planted over the last 33 years here. Your projects are JUST what I need these days! I've subscribed and shared with many, too. Thanks for sharing your talent and time with so many! May God continue to bless you always. 💜

Great, Wonderful, Marvellous, Hats Off. I Simply Love you.

Helen I want to come live with you! You are truly a blessing and the Lord's light definitely shows thru you.

Ms. Helen that is beautifully done. It looks like something I would buy at a store.

Absolutely gorgeous! God bless!
