Please note - These baths are $180 each, if you’d like to purchase one, just let me know which you’d prefer.I’ve named this trio ‘ Purple is Me! ‘A handful of glass gems will be included.Each of these Beeautiful baths have been meticulously created by myself.Each have their own ‘ personality ‘, in one you’ll find that I’ve carefully laid stainless beads in circular motions, then filled each of these sections with metallic triangles & stunning dots.In another I’ve placed a curving stream of iridescent glass sticks, with a ‘ tumble ‘ of dots ( including a large black gem ), then flowers on the outside of the stream.& then in the other, if you look carefully you’ll see a random pattern of flowers going through the centre, then I’ve place a line of iridescent glass sticks, gorgeous purple dots, then iridescent purple glass to fill in the rest of the space.Each are shallow enough for Bees.Each measures 24 x 24 x 5 cm.They can be placed anywhere in the garden.If you’re unsure of why Bees need water, here’s a little bit of information -Bees need bee baths for a safe, accessible water source to hydrate, cool the hive, process food, and feed larvae, especially during hot, dry weather. Without shallow stations with rocks to land on, they risk drowning in deep water or wasting energy searching for hydration. ®Here is why bee baths are crucial and how they work:Key Reasons Bees Need WaterStations• Hive Cooling (Evaporative Cooling): Bees collect water and spread it inside the hive; as it evaporates, it cools the nest during extreme heat.• Larvae Care: Water is used to mix with pollen and honey to feed young larvae.• Digestion & Food Processing: Water helps bees digest food and manage honey consistency.• Forager Health: Bees need to drink and gather minerals from standing water to stay healthy.Why a Special "Bath" is Needed• Prevents Drowning: Bees cannot land on open water surfaces safely; they need rocks, twigs, or marbles to perch on while drinking.• Energy Conservation: Having a local water source prevents them from wasting time flying long distances. @How to Make a Simple Bee Bath1. Use a shallow dish, saucer, or birdbath.2. Fill with rocks, pebbles, marbles, or twigs so parts are above water.3. Add water, keeping it below the top of the rocks.4. Place in a shady spot and refresh daily.
