Garden art is a great way to add focus and interest in the garden either in colder months when less is in bloom, or to bring a different dimension to a garden full of life. Either way, art belongs in the garden. After all, nature is our best art inspiration. Since your garden is already such a wonderful expression of self, use the opportunity to create DIY yard art for your garden, using these ideas for inspiration!

 

Use a masonry bit and drill on each stone, and then place a piece of rebar into the ground to slide the stones onto.

 

Take old wooden ceiling fan blades when the fan quits working and create yard art, like these butterflies. Waterseal, then polyurethane them well to prevent warping. The bodies are old table legs!

 

Drill holes randomly in a fence, then place in colored marbles.

 

Fun use and great recycling. Garden art with windows!

 

Moss spheres on rebar shoved into the soft soil.

 

Create mosaic art with silicone caulk, tiles and glass and grout on old bowling balls.
