There are many ways to decorate the garden. The right stone garden angel or large Buddha statue can add a heavenly touch of peace and tranquility to any backyard, there are exquisite garden fairy and animal statues that can be hung from backyard trees, and gnome sculptures are an easy means of adding cheer. One of the most challenging ways to decorate the garden is also one of the most dramatic. Although it takes a great deal of patience, hard work, and knowledge to create beautiful backyard topiary, the end result can be breathtaking, living works of art. Fortunately, if you lack the artistic mindset and time to create topiary, you can still bring the beauty of this art into the backyard with topiary animal garden statues.
European style sculptural topiary items require nothing more than placing them into your garden to give it a beautiful, topiary touch. The Sculptural Swan is a lovely piece of decor that expresses the grace and beauty of a swan in green, faux leafy form, while the Bunny Rabbit will be a hit with kids of all ages. The Sculptural Flamingo also shows that statues of these stately birds don't need to be pink to be beautiful.
The metal frame and fade-resistant, faux leaf foliage used in these items turn them into permanent topiary that requires neither watering nor clipping.

The gnome statue has become a popular mainstay of modern garden decor. These little creatures tend to be much more cheerful than fairies and pixies, and most are downright jolly. They also add cheer to the garden with brightly-colored clothes, are right at home in any backyard, and do a variety of garden chores with typical, easy-going, gnomish flair.
Plowing Pete is a gnome who loves to use a tractor for garden work. Although he might spend more time just relaxing on the tractor than actually doing any work, he takes care of the mushroom patch with a good-natured smile.
While some gnomes are taking care of the garden, others are taking a well-earned nap after reading a good book. Snoozing Booker the Garden Gnome happily dreams away the afternoon while relaxing under a spotted mushroom.
Whether actually weeding the garden or just taking a snooze, all of that hard work makes for a very dirty gnome at the end of the day. Tubby the Bathing Gnome washes off the dirt at the end of a long day by taking his bath in a barrel below a handy garden faucet.
Add some good cheer to your garden with these fun gnome statues and the best in high quality garden statuary from Design Toscano.
Fairies have entertained the imagination for centuries. The little people go by many names and can be found in cultures throughout the world. According to lore, some are mischievous but most will help you as long as they are treated with respect. They tend to frequent gardens and places of wild, natural beauty and although you aren't going to see an actual fairy, you can at least bring them to life with the right type of garden statuary.
High quality, realistic fairy sculptures like the Fairy of the West Wind help give form to these enchanting creatures with fine, breathtaking details. This beautiful fairy sculpture is so detailed and realistic that you can almost hear the haunting, magical sounds coming from her flute. Seat this fine statue on a shelf or garden wall to add a bit of magic to your place.
The Sunflower Fairy Statue is another, very realistic sculpture that celebrates the enchanting beauty of fairies with incredible details and form. This fairy sculpture expresses her connection with nature by being crowned with flowers, wearing a detailed petal skirt, and holding a sunflower bowl.

Those who prefer angel statues that act as an expression of religious faith will love the Divine Guidance Praying Angel.

Decor serves many purposes and one of the most important is making your guests feel right at home. We want guests to feel as accepted and comfortable as possible and one of the easiest ways to help make that happen is with decor that literally welcomes them at the door. The Birdy Welcome Statue does this with a bright and cheerful display of four colorful bird species. You can almost hear the cute birds in this statue chirping as they perch on top of a log inscribed with "Welcome" written in elegant script.
Put the Blue Bird Welcome Statue on display for a simply adorable welcome sign. The two little lovebirds in this statue welcome guests with appealing, soft blue and yellow hues while perched on top of a classic welcome log. This beautiful little sculpture works just as well in the garden as it does inside the home.
Gnomes also make excellent subjects for welcoming guests to the backyard or at the front door. The Greetings from the Garden Gnomes Welcome Statue is a fun, beautiful little sculpture replete with a tiny squirrel, mushrooms, tortoise, and two friendly gnomes who are hard at work putting the finishing touches on the welcome sign.

Everyone loves a beautiful backyard. It's one of the main reasons why so many of us become involved with gardening and display a variety of gnomes, fairies, and other garden statuary. Angels add a special touch to any backyard, especially when they show cute, highly detailed, angelic children. Big, dramatic angel statues have their place in the backyard but won't add to the beauty of a flowerbed like the small Heaven's Comrades Garden Angel Statue. This adorable sculpture captures the innocent beauty and wonder of a child lucky enough to have a bird perch on her hand. Her wavy hair, folded robes, and details of the feathers in her wings and on the bird are a wonder to behold. The small basin also turns this statue into a fine bird feeder or bird bath.
The Angels Garden Blessings Statue is another exclusive Design Toscano sculpture from the Acorn Hollow collection that captivates with beautiful, lifelike details. Similar to the Heavens Comrades statue, this sculpture shows an innocent, young angel reaching out to gently touch a small sparrow as she stands over a bird bath. The innocent beauty of this statue adds an endearing touch to any garden. It can also be used as a petite bird bath or small bird feeder.

The main goal of most gardens is growing various types of greenery. The garden acts as a private sanctuary where we can tend and show off beautiful flowerbeds, carefully pruned hedges, and stately trees. Nevertheless, the backyard always looks better with a bit of garden statuary. The right type of animal garden statues can give the yard a natural touch of drama and beauty, and garden fairies provide a mystical, magical touch. However, even if a garden is decorated with the best and most beautiful of sculptures, the decorating isn't truly complete until a water feature has been installed.
This can take the form of a small pond although most people settle for the beauty and natural grace of a fountain. A fountain takes still water and brings it to life. It gives it voice in the form of bubbling laughter and when you listen to that refreshing sound, it cleanses the worries and stress from the soul. It's an invaluable, natural form of therapy that can be expressed by any type of fountain. The Alpine Approach Garden Fountain has an impressive natural appearance that resembles steadfast Alpine granite being washed by clear, cold streams of water. Counter its impressive faux stone appearance with the weathered wood and stone look of the Ridge Point Garden Fountain Sculpture.
Order any of these sculptures along with anything else on our site between now and February 14th and get 20% off the regular price.

Garden statuary doesn't have to be limited to your own decorating projects. Buy statues and sculptures of gnomes, fairies, and other subjects for friends and family and you might be surprised at how much they like such a gift. Resin statues and sculptures make for excellent gift items in part because people don't usually get them for a birthday or other occasion. They represent a fun change from the status quo while providing loved ones with long-lasting, beautiful decor.
Of course, you have to make sure that the sculptures you pick out will also be appreciated and loved by the person you are giving them to. For example, you probably don't want to pick out a gargoyle statue for someone who never watches horror films and has no interest in the fantasy genre. He or she probably won't appreciate even the best of gargoyle gifts so it's better to stick to something like animal garden statues or a beautiful stone garden angel. There are dozens of detailed animal sculptures to choose from and we have a veritable host of angels suited for every taste and garden.

He is the very essence of happy summertime days and will give a positive, cheerful touch to anyone's backyard. Folks who prefer gnomes with a unique appearance will love the magical Moon Gawker Garden Troll Statue. Although this sculpture shows a small garden troll rather than a gnome, it makes for a cute, enchanting addition to the garden.

Asian garden statues are a welcome addition to most backyards. Whether the yard already has garden fairies or classic Greek statuary on display, Asian decor can provide a peaceful, enchanting touch that reminds us of the need for tranquility in our lives. While quiet and peaceful depictions of a meditating Buddha are a common and fitting aspect of Asian gardens, Asian-themed decor also includes dramatic pieces like ornate and beautifully detailed bronze dragons. Some Buddha statues are also meant to inspire laughter and add a light-hearted touch to the garden.
One such easy-going Buddha sculpture is The Laughing Maitreya Buddha Statue. This jolly Buddha is all smiles as he contently sits and waits to hand out candy to lucky children. Rub his belly for good fortune and let his laughing face wash away your worries.
Another delightful, laughing statue comes in the form of a sculpture of Shou Xin Gong, the Chinese God of Longevity. Wise Shou Xin Gong expresses his happiness with an open smile as he offers the peach of immortality, a fruit said to bloom once every 3,000 years. This is the fruit that made the mischievous Monkey King immortal after he stole one and took a few bites. Shou Xin Gou holds the staff of longevity in his other hand and is said to grant a long life to those who put statues of him on display.

Gargoyles are such an interesting type of garden statuary. Unlike their angelic counterparts, these statues are designed to scare away evil spirits and evil-doers and attempt to accomplish this with toothy grins, a formidable muscled appearance, big clawed hands, and intimidating bat-like wings. They are the very definition of frightening so it might seem odd to put them in the garden. Nevertheless, these mythical creatures can be quite endearing and many of us find them to be simply fascinating. They remind us of gothic cathedrals, royal European castles, and fairy tales. They lend a certain sort of enchantment to any garden and that's why gargoyle figurines also make excellent gifts for just about anyone.
Emmet the gargoyle sculpture is downright cute and looks about as intimidating as a puppy. In fact, he looks like he needs a friend and will find plenty of fans when placed in a prominent spot in the garden. On the other hand, you wouldn't want to go near The Chained Cathedral Gargoyle. There's a reason why this protective, feisty gargoyle is kept on a chain and he shows it with tensed muscled arms, outspread wings, and an open, toothed maw.
For a truly frightening gargoyle, you can't get much more terrifying than the sculpture of Scatheus, Guardian of the Shadows. The fine details and savage of appearance of this gargoyle make it seem as if the beast is ready to come to life!
Get 20% off any on sale gargoyle or other on sale item at Design Toscano until February 1st as part of our Mid-Winter Clearance Sale!

There are ups and downs to having a garden inhabited by fairies. According to folklore, the upside is that
they can help your garden grow. They use their magic to give flowers the brightest of colors and fill vegetable patches with produce. However, those benefits don't come without a price. Fairies have to be treated with respect and provided with small gifts or they demonstrate their disappointment by sabotaging the garden and focusing on mischief.
In keeping with fairy folklore, we offer fairy statues that show their mischievous side. Pixies in particular are said to be fairies that would rather cause problems and play practical jokes than weed the garden. Stretch, the Garden Pixie laughs with glee as it leans forward to surprise your guests with a cold, wet frog. Its mischief is only matched by that of its partner in crime, Sling, the Garden Pixie. This fairy is clearly up to no good as it carefully aims its slingshot at your window, the nose of your favorite stone garden angel, or pet dog.
Both of these enchanting sculptures portray the mischievous nature of pixies with artistic detail. Their long, pointed ears, peaked hats, sinewy muscled appearance, and intelligent faces will make you wonder if these statues might just come alive on a midsummer's eve.

Whether the size of a postage stamp or an acre of green, animal garden statues and various types of garden statuary help to give it character and turn it into your own personal green space.

might want to portray. You don't need to settle on any old statuary either. Go for unique, quality items that will make a statement and compliment the beauty of your backyard.
These are items such as the exquisite Fairy of the West Wind Sitting Statue or even detailed gargoyle figurines like the Silas the Gargoyle Sentry. Each of these is essentially a beautiful work of art that adds a huge amount of character to any garden and are a tiny sampling of the huge array of fairy and gargoyle sculptures we carry.
Animal statues help to give your garden a wild look with natural beauty. The success of animal sculptures depends on their realism and this is why we offer items that stand out for their lifelike details such as the Shadowed Predator Black Panther Statue.

Merry Christmas! The special day has arrived and kids of all ages across the country, in Canada, and all over the globe are ready to see what Santa has brought them.

Parents and grandparents will also be opening gifts on this day and those who like to spend time in the garden might tear off the wrapping paper to reveal beautiful garden fairies like Fiona the Flower Fairy. Kneeling down to help the flowers grow, the beautiful details and lifelike appearance of this fairy sculpture make Fiona seem as if she is going to spring to her feet and take flight.
Or, they may have received a beautiful Summertime Fairy on a Swing Statue. Seated on a real miniature swing, this fairy sculpture moves with the breeze and looks just lovely when hung from a backyard tree or placed in a bright kitchen window.
Animal garden statues might also show up beneath some Christmas trees. Gigi the Garden Giraffe could be tough to wrap but the Baby Fur Seal Statue will look simply adorable when placed next to the pool.
No matter what you get or don't get for Christmas, we at Design Toscano hope that you are able to share this joyful day in the warm atmosphere of family and good friends.

Garden statuary isn't just limited to the garden. A lot of pieces make statements in both the greenery of
the backyard and the office environment. Once summer has winded down and the leafless trees of winter have become part of the backyard landscape, some sculptures just look lonely out there in the garden. Better to bring those pieces indoors to cheer you up or act as a source of inspiration in the office. While most garden fairies look better in the backyard, some gargoyles look right at home in the office.
The comical Detest the Rest Gargoyle Statue can be a great addition to many an office. Unlike other gargoyles, Detest looks more annoyed than ready and willing to defend the castle or church. Since he looks miserable out there in the cold, you might as well bring him inside and put him in a corner of the home or right on your office desk. His scowling demeanor will make you feel as if someone understands during those frustrating and stressful of days. Since no one wants to look like a gargoyle, it may also remind you that the anger might not be worth the effort.
