Critter,
For many years I have used frogs some were given to me from my MIL when I joined the Garden Club in 1949. Many were given to my daughters, (some of them were frogs themselves), once they started their gardening.
Here are the ones I have left, some of them are fairly new.
Enjoyed reading your post here, lots of fun.

Another frog fan!

That's a wonderful collection... I love the huge oval one! I find I use the metal pointy ones more than the glass ones - maybe I just haven't figured out the knack of using those. I have one teeny round one like the 3 in your photo, and I use it a lot at the bottom of a little vase to make a single bloom stand up "right."

My grandma used the heavy glass frogs for her flower arranging. I sure wish I could find some like that nowadays.
