Garden decorations made of stone always look beautiful and fit into almost every garden. Unfortunately, the great look also comes at a price. This only applies to decorative items from the hardware store. By making your own garden decorations out of stone, you can save a lot of money and let your imagination run wild. Do you need tips and suggestions? Then you've come to the right place.
How can I make my own stone garden decorations?
To make garden decorations out of stone yourself, you can stack small towers out of stones, create mosaic patterns out of gravel, decorate concrete with colorful stones, fill pebbles into wire shapes, paint stones or use river stones and moss for table decorations.
