Seating

One of the most popular forms of functional garden décor is seating. A wooden or iron garden bench makes a wonderful addition to almost any size or style of garden. On a larger scale, gazebos and arbors make attractive, functional garden decor.

Statuary

Statuary, a popular form of garden décor, can be either functional or non-functional. Non-functional garden décor statuary makes a lovely addition to that perfect spot in your garden, something to gaze upon and admire. Or you may choose garden statuary that is also a fountain, creating a restful, peaceful addition to your garden and a delight to your feathered friends.

Weather Vanes and Weather Stations

Weather vanes and weather stations are functional and attractive additions to any style of garden décor.
Weather vanes are used as decoration for homes and garden buildings.

Without the directional rods, they can be hung indoors or outdoors to embellish a bare wall.

With the directional rods, a weather vane will accurately determine the direction of the wind. The figure on your weather vane will point in the same direction that the wind is blowing.

Weather stations provide a host of valuable services to the homeowner, allowing them to monitor indoor and outdoor temperatures, and gauge barometric pressure, wind speed, humidity, rainfall, dew point and even wind chill. Depending on the type of weather station you want, you can find models that will alert you when any factor of the weather changes.

You might want to consider other types of weather-related garden décor including rain gauges, sundials, and thermometers.

Walkways

No garden decor is complete without walkways to take you from one area to another. Depending on your needs, you'll find many materials available, including bronze, stone, glass, and slate.

Gazing Balls and Garden Flags

Some of the most popular forms of non-functional garden décor are gazing balls and garden flags. Gazing balls are available in a wide variety of styles, sizes and colors. Garden flags are colorful and interesting; most homeowners enjoy changing these garden décor items with the seasons and for holidays.

Regardless of what garden décor items you ultimately choose, remember to look for items that are well constructed of good quality, waterproof materials. That way, you'll continue to enjoy your garden and garden décor for many years.
