When moving into a place with its own yard, it rarely takes long before a. new owner or tenant wants to add some personal touches to their new space. After all, it takes less than it may seem to make a yard truly feel like part of a home.
Indeed, there are products out there to achieve that purpose for everyone. Whether you need something to help relax, attract birds, or just make the yard more attractive, we can help. So many of these little helpers are irresistible!
Outdoor Throw Pillows
When a pillow is going to be exposed to the elements, it can't really be the same kind that most people would put on a bed. Instead, a throw pillow like this is needed, as it has high-density, water-resistant polyester fabric and a fade-resistant coating that can withstand at least 1,000 of sunlight.
They're also soft and breathable, and the manufacturer paid as much attention to fashion as function. Although the pillow's standard size is 16 inches by 16 inches, larger variants are available. Those who don't like this pattern will also be relieved to know there are 33 others to choose from.
Garden Flag
While this is far from the only garden flag one could put in their backyard, it's the perfect option for the dog owner in your life. After all, when they're in the yard dealing with their dog's business, it's the perfect time and place for a reminder that despite the responsibility, life is better with a dog.
As for the flag itself, it measures at 12 by 18 inches and is made from high-quality material that is durable, weather-resistant, and fade-resistant all at once. So, nobody needs to worry about bringing it back inside every time it rains or when the Sun is beating down on it.
Hori Hori Garden Knife
This garden knife is seven inches long and the best indicator that it's used for gardening is the fact that its measurements are written on the blade in both inches and millimeters. That makes it so much easier to tell how deep seedlings are being replanted.
Although both sides of the knife are sharp, one edge is serrated to make cutting wood and large roots easier. As for the other side of the blade, it's best used for vegetables, ropes, and smaller wigs. It also comes with an Oxford sheath for easy carrying.
Pudgy Pals Garden Statue
As a general rule, a creature gets cuter the rounder and pudgier it is. With that in mind, it shouldn't be hard to see the appeal of this charming garden frog statuette, aside from its clear friendliness.
Those who like it can expect to have it in their lives for a long time, as this figure — which stands seven by six by 5.5 inches — is known for its durability thanks to the combination of stone and resin used in its construction.
Heavy-Duty Trowel
Like any garden trowel, this item is used for digging, weed control, and precise bulb planting. However, its hardness score of HRC50 means that it won't break as easily in hard soil, tangled roots, and rocky terrain as some other models.
Better yet, it has a couple of special features. In addition to featuring a length of sawtooth on its left side to cut weed roots and small branches, it also sports a ruler to make bulb planting easier. Its V-shaped blade also allows users to dig deep more easily than before.
Dinosaur Gnomes Garden Statue
Although garden gnomes are a classic part of any yard, this super fun and clever statuette presents a fresh take on the concept. Rather than just standing around, these brightly colored little gnomes are riding around on a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Naturally, any kid who's obsessed with dinosaurs will adore this festive figure. And not to worry, the figure is made from durable, long-lasting resin that can withstand rain, Sun glare, and even light snow. Good luck resisting these charming little guys!
Round Tablecloth With Umbrella Hole
While there's certainly a difference between good and bad tablecloths indoors, that difference is a lot steeper when that tablecloth has to deal with the elements. Fortunately, this one is 90% water-resistant, which means that even staining liquids can largely be wiped off.
In addition, its high UV piece-dyed fabric provides the tablecloth with up to 500 hours of sun protection, and it's also wrinkle-free and machine washable. Finally, it comes equipped with an umbrella hole that zips up to ensure coverage when the umbrella isn't set up.
Outdoor Cat Statue
While some lawn decorations are more on the silly side, others are better at achieving a wholesome, homey feeling. Indeed, that's exactly what this lovely cat statue was made for. And it has a little extra edge to draw people's attention.
The cat itself is made from natural resin that's both waterproof and resistant to sunlight. It's also equipped with five solar-power LED lights that give the flowers around its neck a pleasant glow when night falls. The power is stored in a 1.2 volt rechargeable battery and it lasts eight hours per full charge of sunlight.
Porch Rules Sign Outdoor Pillow Covers
Although some pillows are designed for the outdoors, others require a neat pillow cover like this. Specifically, this one is made for an 18 by 18-inch pillow and is made from polyester, which makes it soft but also water and fade-resistant.
Indeed, its thick linens are durable, skin-friendly, and machine washable (no bleach or ironing). It also has a hidden zipper closure at the bottom. So, the only remaining question is whether you like the rules printed on it.
Flower Pot Head Planter
One of the best ways to personalize a garden is by spreading little statuettes around it. While there's nothing wrong with a classic lawn gnome, it's also an added bonus when those decorations serve their own practical purpose.
That is exactly the case for this lovely, serene figure of a relaxing forest sprite. Of course, she's all the more beautiful when some seeds are planted in her head, and she can grow some verdant, beautiful hair. Although no plants are included, the resin the figure is made from is both lightweight and durable enough to last for years.
Hanging Swing Frog Statues
These adorable frogs and the hammock they come with measure at 3.35 by 9.84 by 5.12 inches, but a smaller and larger size is also available. Although it was designed for use in the garden, this charming, intimate scene can also go anywhere where mobiles can be hung in your home.
Of course, those who do put these affectionate frogs and their little snail buddy outside will find that the figures are made from high-quality resin and coated in environmentally sustainable outdoor paint. This prevents any damage from the rain and helps withstand the Sun's rays.
Disney Frozen 2 Patio Chair
It's not easy to get patio furniture without breaking the bank, but this adorable little item for the kids is a big exception. The print on it looks like it does in this photo, and young children consider it pretty comfortable to sit in.
Reviewers also mentioned that it has a locking mechanism that keeps the chair open if the child moves it elsewhere. It's also very lightweight, though this can sometimes make it a little difficult for young children to get in the chair, so be prepared to assist.
Outdoor Rug
This waterproof outdoor rug was inspired by the Bohemian style from Morocco, and comes in a few color variations. Both sides of the rug are also incorporated into the design, so it should fit the aesthetic whether it's flipped over or not.
In addition to being waterproof, the rug is wear-resistant, easy to clean, and breathable enough to air dry afterward. It's also made from recycled materials and is very easy to carry around. It's a practical part of any patio or picnic.
Solar Deck Lights
While solar lights can make a garden lovelier, they can serve a much more practical purpose when installed onto a deck's guardrail. Thanks to the monocrystalline silicon solar panels, these lights charge quicker and more efficiently using the Sun's energy than before.
As a result, each charge-up should leave the lights with eight to ten hours of power. They're also made of high-strength ABS polymers and have a waterproof rating of IP65, which means they should withstand the elements. They're also fairly easy to install, thanks to their wireless design.
Solar Garden Lights
While nothing makes an evening magical like the presence of fireflies, one can't always count on them to appear in the backyard. So, on those nights that seem perfect for a little friendly illumination, these swaying solar lights are a little more reliable.
That's not just because they charge in the daytime but also because they're equipped with specialized iron wires and heavy-duty bases. That means they sway in the wind without blowing away. They also don't require any cables or plugs and can just be planted in the ground.
Outdoor Patio Curtains
Whether it's due to nosy neighbors, irritating winds, or simple aesthetic preferences, some patios can really benefit from curtains. And these ones come in a wide variety of sizes and solid colors to fit everyone's tastes and needs.
The fabric these curtains are made from is also sturdy enough to last and is considered all but weatherproof. Not only are the curtains a good way to stay dry on the patio when it starts to rain, but they're also thick and opaque enough to block out both harsh sunlight and prying eyes.
Patio Umbrella Cover
This patio umbrella cover comes in a wide variety of sizes and colors to fit a range of umbrellas, and that variety has made thousands of reviewers happy to say theirs fit perfectly. They also appreciated how adjustable it is, as its long zipper prevents excessive stretching.
The waterproof material is also considered sufficiently thick and high-quality for the job, and most customers found the cover easy to remove. They also felt that the rod that came with it was helpful for this purpose.
Patio Furniture Covers
Not all patio furniture stands up to the elements, which means that these chair covers can make a serious difference. They come in a wide variety of sizes to ensure a snug fit with chairs, which is also helped by features like the elastic shrinkage rope at the bottom and the durable snaps at each corner.
The high-density material is also ideal for protecting the chair from rain, sunlight, snow, wind, and other weather patterns. It also has a breathable design and excess water can easily be wiped away after rainfall.
Galvanized Raised Garden Bed
Nothing gives a backyard personality (not to mention fresh produce) quite like a lovely garden. Whether someone is looking to plant vegetables, flowers, or herbs, this cozy raised garden bed should suit their needs beautifully.
In addition to being spacious, the planter is durable thanks to the galvanized metal used in its construction. It also features a safe, eco-friendly coating, and an open bottom frame that protects roots while ensuring proper drainage. Best of all, it's not going to be a hair-pulling experience to assemble.
Cute Ladybugs Yard Art Lawn Ornaments
All eight of the metal, hand-painted ladybug ornaments shown here are included with each order, and each one measures 3.5 by 3.3 by 1.9 inches. The paint on them is also supposed to stay vibrant and colorful for years to come.
Indeed, it's not just the paint on them that's durable. The metal they're made from is not only sturdy but rust-resistant. Both are also weatherproof, and the ladybugs come with hooks on their bottom sides to make them easy to hang.
Patio Cushions For Outdoor Furniture
Whether it's because they didn't come with any or they've gotten old and worn out, some patio chairs will need a replacement cushion. Although this one only comes in one size, it does feature six different patterns to suit your tastes.
It's soft to sit on, as it's filled with cotton memory foam. While it's also true that this patio cushion has a water-resistant coating, it's worth noting that it's not likely to stand up to heavy rain. The cushion works just as well indoors.
The Selfie Sisters Garden Gnomes
Although there's still as much of a market for cute lawn gnomes as there ever was, there's a little more variety as to what those gnomes can look like. Those who want their lawn decorations to resemble hip young fashionistas need look no further.
In addition to being endearingly sassy, these "Selfie Sisters" Garden Gnomes are also quite sturdy. With their weather-proof design, they'll be able to stand up to anything the elements can throw at them. Unless one of your neighbors is a super intense hater, they should be fine.
Fantasy Bunny Outdoor Art Décor
There are seemingly endless options for homey decorations to make you smile when you look out at your backyard, but it's hard to find one more charming than this one. This carefree little guy is who we all wish we could be when we've got a busy day on the horizon.
But as calming and cute as this dreaming bunny figurine is, it's also easy to underestimate its toughness. It's made from high-quality resin and is designed to handle both the rain and the Sun's harsh glare.
Pollinator-Friendly Garden Yard Sign
At first glance, it may seem strange to buy a sign like this. Even if your garden has all the right plants to attract pollinators and keep their populations healthy, it's not like they'll be able to read it.
However, the pollinator-friendly garden yard sign isn't for them; it's for other people. Whether it's for well-meaning neighbors who want to know how to make their gardens friendlier or crabby ones who have something to say about the clover on your lawn, this sign can serve a helpful social purpose.
Rocker Gnome
Although this endearing garden gnome may not have the most outrageously rock & roll name — "George" — he certainly looks the part. With his all-white robe, thrown horns, and protruding tongue, George here looks like he stepped out of the most classic rock scene of the '70s.
This ten-inch rocker gnome is the right size to fit on a bookshelf, but it's really made for the outdoors. And thanks to its high-quality resin and waterproof, non-toxic design, it should be able to stay out there for a long time. Rock on, George!
Potting Scoop
This potting scoop has tall sides to make transferring soil easier but also features a serrated tip that allows users to cut through clumps of soil and roots. It may be a simple design choice, but it's proved effective enough to make this a deeply popular choice.
Thanks to this design decision and the high-quality materials used to make the tool, this potting scoop has attained consistently high ratings from reviewers. It's going to be hard to find one that does the job better!
Sasquatch Statue With Cup Of Coffee
While it's unusual to have a statuette of Bigfoot in one's yard, it's even more unusual to have one that seems to take all of the legendary beast's mystique away. Rather than a mysterious figure wandering the woods, it seems he now has a perfectly average domestic life.
Between the apron, the coffee mug, and the curlers, he's in a state that a lot of people can relate to. Of course, they usually don't have gnomes hanging off them. This statuette is made from durable resin and hand-painted with a water-resistant and fade-resistant coating.
Gardening Florist Apron
The kitchen isn't the only place where someone might need an apron, as gardening gets about as messy as quickly. This gardening florist apron is meant to handle the needs a gardener has while sporting a classical floral style.
It measures 29 by 13 inches with 30-inch ties and features eight pockets. It also features six fabric hangers intended to hang gardening tools that don't fit in those pockets. Its blend of 35% cotton and 65% polyester also makes it durable and easy to clean.
High-Performance One-Hand Garden Pruners
Although the forged aluminum handle and hardened steel blades make these pruning shears high-quality and dependable, their shelf life lasts even longer than it seems because all components in them can be replaced. Their ergonomic handles also revolve for extra comfort.
The handle also features a shock-absorbing design that lessens the impact of cutting on the hands, which both increases comfort and reduces the risk of injury. These Italian-made high-performance garden pruners are also weighted appropriately for precise cutting.
Game of Gnomes Garden Statue
For Game Of Thrones fans, it often takes more than a disappointing season or two to wipe away a decade or more of fandom. Those who remain as dedicated as ever will likely find this clever garden gnome and his familiar chair very endearing.
Although he's seated on a throne of gardening implements rather than swords, the position and scowl are enough to indicate what this is an homage to. As for the statue itself, it's made from 100% weather-resistant cast poly resin, which means it can stand up to the elements as steadfastly as the characters who inspired it.
Metal Garden Sculptures
They can be bought individually or as part of a set, but these metal garden sculptures all have their ways of making their marks on people's hearts. That's especially true, thanks to the bouncing effect they have when the wind blows.
Whether the blue butterfly, green grasshopper, red ladybug, or yellow bee catches your eye the most, these high-quality sculptures add a whimsical touch to any garden. That's especially true if there are any young children in the house.
Mini Dragon Playing With Ladybug Statue
Although dragons are typically depicted as large, ferocious beings, more recent decades have seen people fall in love with cuter variants of the mythical beast. Although this friendlier character design didn't start with How to Train Your Dragon, its influence on this particular model is abundantly clear.
Since the adorable little dragon is curiously examining a ladybug on its nose, this little statuette is perfect for garden scenes and terrariums. Although it's made from high-quality resin, it's only about 2.75 inches long, so be careful about losing it.
Lady Biker Themed Polystone Garden Gnome
Officially licensed by Harley-Davidson, this cute yet cool garden gnome is perfect for the motorcycle enthusiast in your life. Not only does this lady appear younger than most female garden gnomes, but her leather gear and sunglasses make her several leagues cooler.
The gnome figure is made from painted polystone and stands at 4.5 inches wide, 3.5 inches long, and 11 inches tall. Customers have noted that it's heavier than it looks but they were pleased to report that it looks just like this photo.
Color Changing Ball Wind Chimes
Although this set of solar-powered light-up wind chimes is typically marketed as consisting of these colored balls, they aren't the only option. Customers can also choose from little angels, butterflies, dogs, dragonflies, hummingbirds, maple leaves, and moon and star shapes to fit their aesthetic.
In addition to being easy to install, thanks to the swivel hook they come with and being easily charged, these ball winds also change color once they're lit up. The transitions are gradual, and the lights go between red, green, orange, blue, yellow, purple, and white.
Professional Dog Grass Mat
Just like with human children, a new puppy will need to undergo a difficult period of potty training. Yet, while kids may have little practice toilets for this purpose, a different product is needed for dogs. That's the major reason why this artificial grass mat exists.
Although it needs an additional tray if used for indoor potty training, it's perfect for the outdoors on its own. That's because it can handle extremely hot or cold weather, is soft on the dog's paws, and drains and cleans easily after this professional dog grass mat is used.
