A few decorating ideas can go a long way in adding the right touch to your garden. One such idea is to use solar garden statues to add beauty or a whimsical feel in creating a unique landscape.
Accent with Light
Gardens used to only be appreciated during daylight hours. More and more people are adding light to their landscapes to enjoy them after the sun goes down. Solar garden statues can add a delightful glow to a flower bed or patio that can contribute to the feel of the garden. They can be used in conjunction with other solar garden lighting to map out the entire features of the landscape. When placed in the sunny areas of your garden, the batteries will charge the solar cell to provide hours of evening enjoyment. Some statues are actually solar spotlights that could be used to highlight a special garden feature.
Animals, People, and Mythical Creatures
There are many types of garden statues modeling a variety of creatures, that there is sure to be one to fit your taste. Do you like dogs or frogs? How about angels or fairies? Maybe it could be shaped like a barnyard animal or your traditional garden gnome. Whatever your interest, there is a great selection available on the market to suit your needs. Butterfly gardens are especially popular, bringing plants in to attract these beautiful insects. Why not add a statue of a butterfly?; A whole garden area could be themed based on your favorite shaped garden statue.
Color and Water
Some garden statues can be modified to add a water feature, and some come with color-changing solar lights to contribute a different feel to your landscape. Most solar garden statues are water resistant and can withstand being sprayed with water. You would not be able to put them into a bird bath, but you could put them on a pedestal within the water bowl. This would allow you to add a dimension of water and color to your yard or flower bed.
