A garden is beautiful in itself, but garden décor is used to accent certain aspects of the garden without seeming overpowering. Garden décor comes in varying degrees. Some, such as garden stakes, are subtle accents to mix with any plants or low-lying shrubs, while others like rain chains and hose pots are geared toward beautifying a less-than-attractive sight bordering your garden. Taking it to the extreme are pieces like yard gnomes and various cardboard figures – bending lady, anyone? – that should only be brought out on Halloween. At HG Lifestyle, subtlety is the key. With our wide selection of garden décor designed in copper, garden stakes, hose pots, and small weathervanes can dot and peak in between your plants and shrubs.

Many pieces of garden décor are added for purely aesthetic reasons. Garden stakes and leaderheads, for example, can be planted and secured in the ground near your plants. When visitors walk past your garden, they’ll see the plants you’ve taken the time to nurture first and then the slight accents between them. While garden stakes and leaderheads, as well as cottage weathervanes, are designed to add additional beauty to your garden, other pieces of décor add visual and aural beauty. Wind chimes are a popular addition to many gardens, for example, not only for their appearance but mainly for the sounds they create to give the space some ambience. Birdhouses and feeders, similarly, add the sounds of chirping birds to your garden.

While all pieces of garden décor are added primarily for aesthetic reasons, some have a practical purpose for beautifying the space. Hose pots, for example, allow you to store a drab garden hose inside a large copper pot. Rain chains, similarly, camouflage a gutter spout. While not covering a gutter, rain chains attach to one and, during a rainfall, the rain goes through the chain of small copper spouts before going to the ground. The chain allows an ordinary waterspout to transform into something beautiful.
