Default Funny garden statues?

the statuary on that website ARE cute, a few were funny; but, i'd hazard
a guess they
are ALL expensive!!!

since you gave a false email address, it's difficult to know your
"direction," although,
from the pictures on the site, i'd guess you're from somewhere
britainish? ;o)

nevertheless, that does not REALLY matter...what you need to know about
this topic,
IF you are interested in decorating your garden...is, first of all to go
to the following
websites:
1) http://www.collectionsetc.com
i checked their shipping instructions, and they WILL deliver to places
outside of
america...but only if you have a "real" address---meaning---NOT a postal
address.

2) http://www.gardeners.com
about this place---although they are currently stressing the fact that
all gardeners NEED
to think "christmas" i am pretty sure they'll have their regular items,
too....plus, they
might just offer links to other similar shops where you can get goodies
for the garden!!
3) use GOOGLE and search for "funny statues for the garden" (and if you
AIN'T in
america, you could stick your location into the search option)...i did
that and i came up with:
A. http://www.accentsinthegarden.com/
and
B. http://trishwilson.typepad.com/blog/...tatues_fo.html



etc., etc.

personally, i LOVE www.collectionsetc.com----the MOST EXPENSIVE item
there costs
$14.95 and, of course, they have cheaper stuff, as well. i got a bunch
of "garden angels"
whose hands are linked by small pieces of chainlink...and although
they've been in my
garden on the SOUTH side...their brilliant colours have not yet faded!!!

it's worth taking a look-see....just don't get obsessive (and believe me
you, it is VERRA
easy to get attached!!!

good luck---have fun----love it!!!
