Carole what an excellent question. I consider myself a garden artist i believe, but in a querky way. My grandmother from tenn. could put a toilet in her front yard and make it looked like it belonged there for all of eternity and look good doing it. I have to work a bit harder at it. I love to make trellis out of grape vine, and small trees and vines, and garden gates etc. If i can get a camera working this spring ill take pics. I love antique things in my gardens as well. I have a double wash tub, with bright yellow daisies planted in it. Getting ready to go to a garden show next weekend. taking my mom and 2 grandaughters. Ill buy some herbs and get great ideas there. I love the marble in the wood fence idea. drill holes and stuff with marbles. when the sun shines it just shimmers with dancing light.

Here is some of my Garden Art. Once we moved into an Apartment..I had to move some of the Art on to My Porch but I still love it and collect it and use it anywhere I can.
The last picture is someone else's garden art that I saw and took a picture of because I thought it was unique.
Loved your Garden Art Carole...thanks for sharing.
Hugs and Smiles, Peggy

Thanks. And thank ya'll for sharing your yarden art. Luv it! I like the colored jars hanging from the trellis. How pretty those would be with candles in them too.
I hear that, Tiana. I have a friend who put a toilet out in her yard and planted it. It looks great. If I did it, it would look like a toilet out in the yard. |

Such beautiful things! I am NOT a garden artist - for years I considered myself lucky if my garden made it all through the summer! LOL! Thanks to you all here at MJF, I'm a lot better at it now, though. :) Your pictures have really inspired me, though, girls. I would love to do something special in my garden this year for my little foster granddaughter - just something unexpected to spark her sense of wonder. I was thinking maybe something with a fairy garden theme... And I'd love to have a fancy little table and chairs set out there under our antique lilac where we can share a special tea... We'll see...
