Spring is here and summer is just around the corner. The warmer weather translates to a lot more time being spent in your beautiful backyard to enjoy the
outdoors and taking dips in the pool. Even when you don't go for a swim, it doesn't get more relaxing than sitting by the water with a cold drink at your side and a great book in your hands. With that in mind, you need the right type of decor to add to the relaxing poolside atmosphere. Animal garden statues can work especially well as poolside decor because they can help make you feel as if you are actually sitting by the shores of a distant, tropical sea.
Two such animal garden sculptures are the Giant White Pelican and the Giant Loggerhead Sea Turtle Statue. Both of these sculptures were carefully sculpted to show the type of details that make them look as if they are going to come to life. The Giant White Pelican has the same look and saunter as the real pelicans that hang out at seaside docks in search of scraps, while the Loggerhead Turtle sculpture looks ready and able to slip into the water for a few laps around the pool.

Meerkats are one of the cutest animals on the planet. The black markings around their eyes and on their paws make them look like little bandits and when they stand on their hind legs, Meerkats look absolutely adorable. Given their charismatic attributes, it's no wonder that Meerkats are excellent inspiration for animal garden statues. Sculptures of these confiding little animals are a wonderful, seriously cute addition to any garden but they complement some garden decorating themes better than others.
For example, although you could put the Meerkat Clan Statue and a classic stone garden angel next to each other, that's not going to look nearly as good as pairing Meerkat sculptures with other African animals. Meerkats are native to the arid plains of southern Africa so they look much better when they share a garden with sculptures like the Lioness with Cub or Gigi, the Garden Giraffe Statue. Both of these sculptures are as representative of dramatic, amazing African wildlife as statues of Meerkats.
Meerkats also work very will with garden fairies. They have a similar mischievous appearance, are small, crafty creatures, and are right at home in flower beds and vegetable patches. They will look right at home when sharing a backyard with the Fairies of the Meadow and just about any garden gnome statues.

Garden fairies are one of the more exquisite types of outdoor statues. Sculpted with graceful lines, curves, and beautiful details, they can punctuate the backyard with elegance in a distinctly magical way. Although there are some fairy statues that show a bit of color, most are painted in classic, faux stone hues. There's nothing wrong with that classical look but it's still nice to have a few fairy statues that are painted in some of the same bright colors as the flower patches where they "live".
Folks hoping to combine bright colors with the elegance and magic of the fairy statue will be happy to know about the Pondering Pixie Stained Glass Sculpture. This wonderful work of art is one of the most colorful fairy sculptures you will ever see. Our happy little pixie is brought to life with delicate flesh tines, pink lips, and tousled brown hair. She also sports a beautiful green leaf dress with a reddish waist band but her colors truly show when the sun hits her sparkling stained glass wings. Inspired by the orange and pale blue shades shown by a Monarch Butterfly, her wings are made of 75 different, copper-foiled, hand cut pieces of stained glass. This pixie shines with color both inside the home and when placed outdoors and will become a bright spot in any garden.

Bigfoot has become a classic, essential part of American and Canadian folklore. Although irrefutable evidence is lacking, thousands of people claim to have
glimpsed or heard the primeval screams of the huge, hairy biped while visiting remote and wild places. Whether it truly walks beneath the huge evergreens of the Pacific northwest or only occurs in our imagination, Bigfoot represents the wild and mysterious side of North America's forests and mountains. We, of course, offer detailed, realistic statues of Bigfoot and thousands of people have put one or more on display in in their backyards. People put statues of Bigfoot on display for a variety of reasons, but the following are a few of the most common reasons for showing this unique decor in the garden:
-
An intriguing creature: Bigfoot captures the minds of millions of Americans and Canadians. Many of us are captivated by the stories of witnesses who claim to have seen Sasquatch and we can't help but wonder if it could actually exist in some deep, dark forest.
-
A unique sculpture: Although we offer hundreds of unique, high quality sculptures, a statue of Bigfoot is a far cry from your average garden gnome. It makes it possible for people to add a truly different statue to the garden.
-
An expression of fantasy and an open mind: Putting a sculpture of Bigfoot on display shows that you have an appreciation for the fantasy genre as well as a realization that our modern world is hardly bereft of mystery.

Greenmen statues are an interesting and unique addition to the backyard. Since they act as wall decor or as sculptures that work with their natural surroundings, they can be used with most decorating themes. However, although greenmen are often referred to as being magical, enchanting, or inspirational, they aren't usually viewed as being functional sculptures because most don't seem to be capable of doing much more than decorating a wall or tree. Nevertheless, there is more than one type of functional greenman sculpture, one of the most striking being the Odin Treestump sculpture. This wonderful, creative greenman pays homage to the Ents of Tolkien fame and other tales that speak of walking, talking tree giants in the form of a resin garden statue that looks like an old treestump with a wizened face.
Odin can be placed in the backyard to act as a statue that combines everyday nature with magical mystical creatures, or this sculpture can be used as a creative table for holding a cold drink on a hot, summer day. Expect this functional greenman to also be a hit at summer garden parties.
Another way of combining the creativity of the greenman statue with function is by putting the Greenman Sculptural Garden Wall Font on display. This authentic foundry iron casting is a striking, classic means of holding your favorite flower cuttings.

Spring is here and it's time to redecorate the garden. This year, why not decorate the backyard with a different theme? Instead of putting out the usual selection of angel statues and garden gnomes, try decorating the backyard with a couple of dragons. They don't have to replace the rest of your decor, but by putting a dragon statue on display, you show your appreciation for the fantasy genre while giving the garden a unique, dramatic touch.
Get your backyard ready for the warm days of spring and summer with dragon sculptures like Ranier, the Sculptural Dragon Rainspout. Put this Medieval-themed functional dragon sculpture on the end of a gutter to help channel water away from the house. This impressive dragon statue is designed to look as if Ranier is breathing fire every time it rains.
To help turn your backyard into a place of enchantment, put Dragon-Orb sculptures on display such as Mayze, the Dragon Protector of the Orb and Sir Sagremor's Dragon Statue with Orb. Mayze shows that the fantasy genre is that much more magical when humor is thrown into the mix. Poor Mayze seems to be more interested in taking a nap on top of the orb rather than ferociously protecting it and thus makes for one of the most adorable little dragon statues you will ever see. Sir Sagremor's dragon isn't exactly cute but he makes up for it with realistic, eye-catching details.

The backyard should always be a place where you can escape to when you need some time away from the stress of everyday life. Whether you use the backyard to grow vegetables or to enjoy a private swim, decorate it the right way and it can act as your own personal sanctuary. Although suitable decor varies by preference and taste, most people will agree that the following three garden statuary items will promote peace and relaxation for just about any garden:
-
The Bright Waters Otters Sculptural Fountain: This functional work of art combines the peaceful sounds of flowing water with the natural beauty of rocks and curious Otters. The lights in this soothing fountain add a further touch of beauty to this impressive sculpture.
-
The Holy Family Sculpture: This beautiful statue follows the 15th century style of portraying Jesus, Mary, and Joseph with a combination of elegance and mysticism. This type of statue was and is still is commonly seen in European cathedrals, in the backyards of Tuscan estates, and other places that are used as sanctuaries of one sort or another.
-
Nature's Baby Peaceful Garden Nap Statue: This endearing sculpture is so relaxing that it might act as inspiration for taking a nap. Nestle this adorable garden statue in a patch of flowers or put it right outside the back door.

Fairies are a natural addition to any garden. Flower beds and backyards are said to be the abode of those magical, mythical beings and they are rumored to help out with garden chores on moonlit, summer nights. Although you probably aren't going to see a live fairy anytime soon, you can still help bring them to life with sculptures like Fiona the Flower Fairy. This realistic, life-like sculpture captures the gentle magic of the fairy with exquisite details and a faux stone antique finish. Fiona will look right at home when placed next to a patch of flowers or beneath the shade of an old, majestic Oak.
The Twinkle Toes fairy statue is another quality fairy sculpture that enchants with life-like details. The expression on the pretty face of this fairy is one of curiosity and wonder as she ponders the butterfly perched on her graceful foot.
Although fairies tend to be gentle creatures, some also turn into fierce warriors when the need arises. Rhiannon the Archer is one such fairy and this best selling sculpture adds a striking, dramatic touch to any backyard.

The gargoyle is one of the more interesting and intriguing types of decor. Unlike animal garden sculptures that show realistic depictions of real animals such as lions and bears, the typical gargoyle statue shows a mythical, intimidating monster. Their appearance couldn't really be described as being pleasant in any way so it seems rather odd that they have been a popular form of garden statuary for centuries. However, long before they made their way into gardens, gargoyles were a common feature on structures for thousands of years. Gargoyles in the form of lions can be seen on ancient Egyptian structures and the ancient Greeks used gargoyles with leering faces on many of their temples. Although those gargoyles were used as sculptural decor, their main function was to divert water off of roofs.
During the Middle Ages in Europe, gargoyles had the same function but this was combined with a lot more symbolism. Gargoyles began to take on more frightening forms to scare off any evil spirits that might want to enter a castle or church as well as to remind church goers that the devil and his minions were always watching and waiting to tempt the unwary. In present times, we use gargoyles in the garden and on our houses because they are simply interesting, unique decor. Whether you display a cute statue like Emmett the Gargoyle or a masterpiece of terror like Scatheus, Guardian of the Shadows, a gargoyle in the garden provides a dramatic touch.

Decor for the garden can reflect a certain type of decorating theme, be used to add a dramatic touch to the backyard, or heighten the natural beauty of your personal green space. It can also be used to simply add elegance to the backyard and certain resin garden statues accomplish this with flying colors. The Goddess Aurora Statue is a striking, elegant depiction of the Roman Goddess of dawn. Aurora was believed to fly across the sky every morning to announce the rising of the sun and this replica of a nineteenth century Italian sculpture captures her personality with graceful curves.
Elegance also comes in the form of animal garden statues like the Grande Black Panther Statue. Few animals express power and grace better than felines. Whether resting on their haunches, prowling through the grass, or sauntering through their territory, every one of their movements is akin to those of a trained acrobat. The Grande Black Panther statue is an excellent, accurate representation of the beauty and elegance of a big, wild cat. Put this realistic animal yard statue in the garden and rumors may start to fly about mysterious wild cats in the neighborhood.
For a gentler yet no less elegant form of garden statue, you can't go wrong with garden fairies like the Sunflower Fairy Statue.

Asian-themed gardens are designed to showcase the beauty of nature through careful planting, pruning, and placement of garden sculptures. The end result is a peaceful, heavenly oasis that works with nature rather than going against it. Many of the Asian-themed statues reflect this connection with nature and can be stunning additions to any backyard.
Pagoda Lantern Sculptures are easy-going garden statues that use a combination of relaxed curves and geometric lines. Pagoda Lantern statues add a pleasant touch to any backyard and have been seen in European gardens since Marco Polo returned from his trip to China. They continue to be popular outdoor decor in backyards around the world.
The Giant Buddha Sculpture captures the peace and tranquility of a meditating Buddha with authentic, carefully carved details. This Buddha is seated in the Lotus position and modeled after Buddha statues that grace tranquil temples in eastern Asia. This is a large, four foot tall statue that can be used as a dominant centerpiece sculpture in the middle of the yard or placed off to the side and under a tree for peaceful, meditative inspiration.

Gardening is a wonderful, healthy hobby that gets us outside the house and can provide us with fresh fruits and vegetables. As anyone who enjoys gardening can attest to, planting, weeding, and pruning can also be quite addictive. If you know someone who loves gardening, they will appreciate one or both of the following gifts:
-
Flora, the Divine Patroness of Gardens: Flora was a commonly revered Roman deity who was associated with flowers, fertility, and spring. Although she was a minor deity in ancient Roman times, Flora became a popular sculptural subject during the Renaissance and her likeness can still be seen in many a Victorian and Italian garden. Our sculpture of Flora shows this spring deity bearing a long garland of flowers as she raises her beautiful face to the warm, spring sky.
-
A sculptural fountain: Gardeners may spend most of their time caring for plants but they also love the sound and beauty of a garden fountain. Put a smile on the faces of gardening friends by giving them the beautiful Abigail's Bountiful Apron Garden Fountain. This elegant fountain shows little Abigail using her apron to catch the water that flows into the exquisite basin. This fountain is a functional work of art that is carefully crafted to resemble marble.

Marble sculptures may have been a feature of Roman villas but the height of decorating the garden with statues was reached during the Victorian era. As the United Kingdom became the wealthiest country on Earth, well to do British families filled extensive gardens with exquisite sculptures. Stone garden angels, impressive statues of lions, and hundreds of other beautiful sculptures were displayed on the grounds of manicured estates. While filling the garden with statues during Victorian days was limited to the wealthy, at present times, garden sculptures are so affordable that just about anyone can turn their backyard into an elegant Victorian garden. Follow these three tips for a backyard that rivals the majesty of any Victorian era garden:
-
Put several classic garden statues on display: Classic sculptures of deities and creatures from Greek myths were a common feature of Victorian gardens. Display beautiful statues such as Hebe, the Goddess of Youth and an authentic replica of the Venus de Milo to give your garden an elegant touch.
-
Include a stone garden angel or two: Get an angel statue like the Glory del Cielo sculpture to add classic, angelic beauty to the backyard.
-
Buy one or more stone lion sculptures: Lions were displayed in Victorian gardens because they are a sign of nobility, power, and majesty. Give your backyard a noble look with the Lion Of Florence Sentinel Statue.
It becomes that much easier to turn your backyard into a Victorian garden for the next seven days because you get 20% off the regular price of all resin garden statues from today until April 11th as part of our Pre-Season Garden Statues Sale!

Spring is here for many places in the USA and Canada and in addition to being a time to clean out the house, it's also the season to think about how you are going to decorate the garden.

Angel statues don't just grace cathedrals, churches, and cemeteries. Sculptures of those celestial beings also look right at home in just about any backyard. They can add a sense of peace and comfort to your place and are among the most classic of garden statuary decor. It's no surprise that a lot of people love angel statues and some of us are tempted to make our own. We might get that idea from arts and craft magazines or simply because we love to create artistic decor for the home but when it comes to angel statues, you are much better off just buying them.
Making a beautiful angel statue for the garden is nothing like weaving, quilting, crafting home decor, or even wood carving. It requires a knowledge of either sculpting marble or knowing how to work with and make statues of carefully engineered resins. Once the resin statue cools and hardens, you also have to know how to paint it to give it a faux stone finish. Such endeavors are far from easy to accomplish and require a great deal of skill and training. In other words, it's the type of thing that is best left to artists and experts that create such beautiful and affordable works as the Praying Basilica Angel Statue or the amazing Monteverde Angel Statue.
Find these and dozens of other stunning angel statues for low prices at Design Toscano today.
The garden is meant to be decorated with statuary. Whether the backyard is used to grow vegetables, for dinner parties, or for playing badminton, it's also the perfect place for displaying a stone garden angel or a collection of classic Greek garden statues. Sculptures give your place a regal touch, allow you to express feelings about your faith, and can be used to add both drama and peace to the backyard. The fact that statues aren't carved from slabs of marble also make them much more affordable than the sculptures that graced Roman villas and Victorian era gardens. Although you could certainly find sculptors who are willing to create a marble statue for thousands of dollars,nowadays, it's far easier to buy garden statues that are made from quality resin.
Resins are used as the medium of choice for high quality statues because this material is much more affordable and weighs much less than granite or marble. The fact that it's also much more pliable than natural stone means that it can be used to create incredibly realistic animal garden sculptures such as the Catch of the Day Grand Bear Sculpture, or Zarien the Zebra. Although resins can be used to make beautifully delicate garden fairies, they are also engineered to last for decades (and should last for centuries with proper care).
