Revive Garden Decor

In cold winter zones, kick off the garden season by taking decorative items out of winter storage and replacing them in planting beds. Gazing balls, colorful glass stakes, wind chimes, whirligigs and other décor can add color to the garden before plants are doing much more than sprouting. In warm zones, clean up garden décor to remove last year’s dirt.

Hold It!

So you’re definitely going to need a holder for your gazing ball! Echo Valley’s Venezia design can hold 8”, 10” or 12” globes in a package that’s not too big or not too small.

Crane

This breathtaking crane and gazing ball pair is made of metal and is designed for the animal lover in you. It’s so unique!

If you like yard ornaments, chance are your fairies will too. Put a gazing ball in your fairy garden by gluing a marble onto the end of a twig. It will be a bit top heavy so create a base for it with clay or a big dollop of hot glue.
