Forget Gnomes, Go with Gargoyles

Gargoyles are technically decorative water spouts that preserve stonework by diverting rainwater away from buildings but they are more known for their menacing faces seen on cathedrals across Europe.

They never took America by storm but can be seen on large older buildings in most of the great American cities.

If you're looking to change things up in your own garden or along your roof line, then consider a gargoyle. It's guaranteed you'll be the only one on your block with one of these hunky punks.

  • Although I wasn't familiar with the goal of garden gargoyles until I read this post, I must say that even though this is interesting, I still find them extremely hideous...if you really want to protect your things outdoors, I'd much rather see sophisticated garden accents or outdoor lighting which can make any garden look romantic, instead of creepy.
