    The pedestal arrived timely and is beautiful. My only suggestion is attaching the mounting instructions. I am not sure how to attach the Bird Girl and instructions for placing it in the garden properly

    • brian

      One good way to attach the statue to the base is to use a very strong epoxy. If you go to a Lowe’s Home Improvement, Home Depot, or similar hardware store, you will be able to find many brands. One that I’ve used many times is the Loctite Heavy Duty quick set. But there are other brands that work just as well. The two main materials used to make the statues are resin and fiberglass.

      Two brands that work well are:
      LOCKTITE, Epoxy Marine
      JB WELD, Clear Weld Professional Grade Epoxy

      If you’d like to secure the pedestal to the ground, here’s a suggestion:

      TO SECURE YOUR STATUE AND PEDESTAL IN THE GROUND:
      Many people will dig an area into the ground underneath the statue about 8-10″ deep. Put small rebar metal rods criss crossed on the bottom of the hole. Then fill the hold with a quick dying/setting cement mix (can be purchased at Lowe’s or Home Depot). As the mixture starts to dry, carefully place the statue base (or additional pedestal if you’ve purchased that, and glued the statue base to the pedestal), about 1 – 1.5″ into the cement. Let the cement dry.

      I hope that this information helps.
      Thanks.
      Brian

    We’ll worth the wait! Our Bird Girl and the pedestal are perfect and arrived in excellent condition. I would definitely shop from Potina again.

    The pedestal ( height 12”) for the Bird Girl statue ( 37.5”) is perfect. Both statue & pedestal are of absolutely excellent craftsmanship. The company owner is very helpful & answers all questions. Both look more expensive than they are. Packing was superb! If you buy the tall Bird Girl statue the pedestal is a must if you want to show her off well. Ask Mr. Caldwell, the owner, what glue to use for attaching pedestal & statue. Follow his advice & you will be very pleased as I was.

    This is the 3rd pedestal we have purchased. One for the large Bird Girl, one for The Little Gardener and one for The Boy and Dog. I suggest buying for all the statues as they give them more presence. The company is a pleasure to deal with on all scores……ordering, prompt delivery, condition of the order upon delivery, the product itself and finally Brian Caldwell. You sir are a gem. 🇨🇦

    I purchased this beautiful item and am very pleased with it. My only concern would be is could ir withstand a good windstorm. It has a lovely finish and makes me smile when I see it in my courtyard. The detailing is wonderful.

      Hi Noel. We recommend that you use a strong epoxy (something like LOCTITE Instant Mix Epoxy) to affix the statue to the pedestal. Also for further stability, to prevent the statue and pedestal from blowing over in a strong wind storm, you can dig out from under the pedestal area about 6″ deep, fill hole with quick set concrete, and gently place the pedestal and statue into the concrete. Spread the concrete 1-2 inches around the bottom of the pedestal. Once it dries, you’ll have a very secure and stable installation. I hope that this suggestion helps.

    Ordered the bird girl and pedestal lt makes the bird girl look so good and taller. Good quality! Great price as well! It was very well packaged and arrived in a timely manner about 4 weeks. Great communication by email. I was very satisfied with the whole process.

    We had purchased the girl last year, and then purchased the stand this year.It places her at a better height for our garden. It’s a perfect addition to her presentation. It took about 6-8 weeks from initial order to delivery. It arrived within a short period of time after shipping notification (& we live in Canada). Everything we have ordered from Potina is extremely well packaged. We purchased 2 items last year and two this year. Everything has arrived in pristine condition.
