7 Ideas How To Use Garden Sculptures for Decoration

Garden Sculptures

In the cycle of the seasons our gardens change their outlook. If you have only plants in it, you risk that in winter or late autumn, your garden will look like a waste land. A smart move is to choose and place some eclectic furniture or  sculptures in it and you will have a four-season lasting and interesting object.

One of the most artistic sculptures are the topiary. They bring a feeling of a height in the garden. It is very well combined with low garden plants.

Ceramic globes such as these, can put some color accent in the garden. They attract attention immediately and are a perfect way to decorate your patio. If your house is minimalist and you want to include some multicultural accent in the garden outside, this element will do the job!

Professional gardeners give us advice that we better use evergreen shrubs and bamboos or miscanthus and sedges, combined with the sculptures we want to place. A good idea is to focus on colorful patterns and texture accents in the surrounding atmosphere. In the following example you can see how green color is used to attract attention and how it makes the contrast between the bright colors in the front and the more neutral (because of the season) colors in the background. You can also notice the perfect mixture of a color selection and contemporary sculpture design.

When you have to choose your piece of decorative elements for the garden, have in mind what the natural surroundings are.

• Is there an ocean ?
• Is there a lake?
• Is there a beautiful forest?
• Is there a mountain?

You have to combine wisely the view of the background with the sculptures you are going to use for the garden.

And if we want to be perfect to the last detail, we have to choose a proper gate for the garden space. Look at this contemporary stainless steel gate. Its fantastic design can accomplish the overall appearance of the place. Think about it. What is the first thing one sees, when he approaches your property? Of course, this is the front gate! In the following example you can see that this gate has also a mailbox, speaker system and newspaper passage.
