Garden Statuary
Garden statuary doesn't just mean a formal classic garden statue!
Decorating your outdoor living area using garden statuary today means
using any type of garden embellishment from an antique collectible
table to a piece of driftwood to express your own personal style just
as you would inside your home.
Whatever springs to mind when you think of garden statues, using
outdoor art objects to decorate and embellish your garden is a
delightful way to personalize your outdoor living area as well as
charm visitors to your yard.
You may choose an eclectic collection of old china plates that can be
displayed on a fence, or an old rusted metal child's toy like a
wagon, featured in a special spot. There are no rules for choosing
your own personal garden statuary. Whimsical objects of iron,
tin, wood and stone are all delightful expressions of your own
personal style when you tuck them into secret areas of your garden.
Visitors love to discover
One of my favorite pieces of garden statuary is a hidden mirror that
my visitors discover when they enter my grape arbor. Mounted on
the side of the arbor, I wait for the surprised exclamation when
they disappear into the leaves only to discover their own reflection!
You can search yard sales and flea markets for all kinds of
interesting garden decor objects. Even something you might
never consider allowing inside your house becomes a fascinating
outdoor focal point when you place it into your backyard!
Unique stepping stones, gazing globes, armillarys, weather
vanes, flags or windchimes, whatever strikes you as a
interesting object is the right object when adding garden statuary to
your backyard. Check some of these retailers who feature
all kinds of
garden statuary.
