Chihuly night and day at the Desert Botanical Garden

This past week I once again visited the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix.  I was so excited to visit, since Dale Chihuly currently has a display at the garden.  For anyone who follows me, you know I LOVE Dale Chihuly glass art!  I even had a dream one night that Dale Chihuly decided to tutor me in the making of glass art.  I think the best time to book a time to visit the garden is between 4-8pm, when you can see the art by day and by night.  I think it looks magnificent by night!  The display will be at the gardens through May 18th.  So if you have a way to visit the gardens, I highly recommend it!  Here are a few pictures of Chihuly by day and by night.

Desert Botanical Garden

The Desert Botanical Garden is located in Phoeniz, AZ.  The entrance alone blew me away with it's beautiful Chihuly Glass display.  I would love to have a Dale Chihuly glass display in my garden, he is so talented.  When I first saw the display I thought it was some gorgeous plant that was reflecting the sun's rays.  It wasn't until it got closer that I realized the plant was really made out of glass.  The garden had a beautiful display of cacti, and volunteers were close at hand to answer any questions you may have.  It is one of 33 landmarks that make up the Phoenix Points of Pride.
