Garden pedestals can help turn your garden into a showplace for guests. You can easily transform even a humdrum garden into the sort of place that will make you proud. Decorate it wisely, and you may soon find yourself suggesting that your guests enjoy their aperitifs or their desserts out in the garden, rather than inside in the dining room. If your garden is in the front of your house, the neighbors can admire its beauty, too.

Garden Pedestals and Display

Even in very informal gardens of wildflowers, it's important to have a few spots of order and display. If anything, these spots of symmetrical presentation will make the colorful flowers look even more wildly beautiful. Garden pedestals can attractively create this order in a number of ways.

You can use these pedestals to hold up planters on either side of the entrance to your house, or you can set them on either side of the entrance to your driveway. If your garden has an entrance, such as an archway, you can flank it with garden pedestals and flowing plants or flowers to make it even more impressive.

If you set a bench or chair out in your garden, you may want to set pedestals beside it, allowing you to enjoy flowers at your own level. Creating levels is a beautiful way to maximize the potential of your garden, and pedestals are a great way to achieve various levels. In addition to setting flowers on top of pedestals, you can also use them to display statues, fountains or sun dials.
