So, to create a sculpture with our own hands, we will need: a metal wire with a diameter of 1 meter, another wire for binding, a mesh made of polypropylene. Naturally needed flower seeds (preferably undersized), grass for lawn, and bait for plants. Also do not forget about soil and straw. First, select the animal and imagine it in your head, then the animal you choose needs to have the shape of the wire repeating the outline of your animal, then the structure must be fixed using welding, or a knitting wire. In the next step, nutrients and straw must be added to the soil. As a result, you have a mass that will not wake up in the future.

If you want to make yourself a gnome, then this is not a problem. To create garden sculptures with your own hands in the form of gnomes, you will need: wire of different thicknesses (reinforcement), and some components of the concrete mass. A concrete mash is usually kneaded with five parts of cement, one part of gypsum and one tablespoon of PVA per 1 kilogram of mass. We add water in the process of mixing, the concrete should be thick so that it can be molded from it and it holds its shape. The wireframe of the future sculpture is made of wire, after which the frame is stuck with concrete and we give the shape that you yourself planned. Drying the sculpture is necessary only in the shade, otherwise the concrete will crack. After the concrete has dried it must be covered with water-repellent impregnation. Then you can decorate your art as you like.
I also want to tell you about another way how to create garden sculptures with your own hands. This method is very easy and does not require much time. And so the very essence of the method is very simple. Take the usual old iron chair, double-sided tape and moss. Adhesive tape can be bought at a building materials store, and moss can be bought at a specialty store. And so let's get down to work. The first thing we need to do is tape the seat and back of the chair with tape, then glue the moss. The end result is a very unique little thing that can only find a place in your garden. Well, if you don't like the chairs, then you can make yourself a vase. To get started, take the vase that you liked most in shape and degrease its surface with an alcohol solution, then cover the surface of the vase with hot-melt adhesive. Then glue the moss. After finishing work, sprinkle moss with water.
