People always tried to decorate the surrounding space, and gardens and lawns were no exception. Everyone is good at the sculptures and fountains in famous gardens and parks, but various landscape figures and small fountains and ponds will diversify and revive not only a public place, but also your garden in the country.
The market offers a variety of figures – fairies, birds, cats, frogs, hedgehogs, butterflies, mushrooms, decorative arches and jugs … In all, do not list. But one of the most popular for the second century remains garden gnomes. They appeared about 130 years ago and immediately gained popularity. The production of these figures was carried out first at one family enterprise, but soon 16 more factories picked up the towers. It is interesting that today in Germany there are more than 14 million garden gnomes for 80 million inhabitants, and this is far from the limit.
When choosing garden figures and jewelry, you need to remember that there should not be a lot of them, since they are intended primarily for the arrangement of accents and “revitalization” of the lawn or reservoir.
Another popular way to decorate the garden is the arrangement of a reservoir. It can be a small pond, stream or fountain.
Garden fountains can be classic, having a ball, fan or other familiar shape, and modern and unusual, which differ in the shape of the jet and the intensity of the flow. There are also closed fountains in which water shimmers from one container to the second, from the second to the third, then again in the first. Such fountains can be made of stone, plastic, polyurezine and some other durable materials. Some fountains look like natural flows – springs, streams, keys.
You can purchase ready -made sets that allow you to equip a stream or pond on the site, the shores of which will be strengthened and hidden by pebbles and flowers, and next to you can put figures of her tsapel or other water birds and pretty frogs. Fountain-breasts, wall fountains or structures with several different bowls installed at different heights create an imitation of the natural course of water.
