Garden Glamour: Garden Art

May 29, 2015

garden art is a unique way to transform your garden

Garden Art can easily transform a garden from ordinary to extraordinary. Garden art is anything you imagine it to be. Items of sentimental value to you and your family make wonderful pieces of garden art. Placed in a special place, either as a centerpiece or as a lovely focal point in the garden setting, can tell a story or whisper secrets of days gone by. From historical artifacts to friendly, homely garden sculptures to hard and audacious modern structures, no matter which, garden art is integral in elevating a garden to the next level. Let your imagination run free and your personality shine through as you add garden art your garden.

Here are our 3 most loved garden art ideas:

A POTTED WALL FEATURE

It’s a great idea to hang some repurposed and painted tin cans or other bright coloured pots on a wall or old wooden door, or even a wooden fence, and plant them up with some herbs or bright coloured flowering plants.

Remember to match your plants to the climate of the area (eg sun or shade) and also to drill some holes in the containers for adequate drainage.

If you plan your wall feature well, you could end up with a well-fragranced wall feature that is also abundant with colour and teeming with delightful insets like bees and butterflies.

You will be astounded at the great artistic effect of this simple DIY project.

WATER FEATURES

A water feature is a great artistic statement in any garden, whether a small trickling water fountain or a large water trough again a lovely creeper-cladded wall. Running water ads an element of peace and tranquility to your garden and also attracts birds and other wildlife.

IRON ART FEATURES

We just LOVE various forms of iron art in a garden, like this delightful windmill. Iron art can be functional or simply act as a focal point of beauty for the admirer. Iron art such as an old wheelbarrow strategically positioned can also be plated up with potted plants to create a niche little container garden corner.
